| I was born much too early — surely, surely prematurely
|
| But I already knew that I wanted more by the time the placenta hit the floor
|
| And it wasn’t too much later, lying inside my incubator
|
| Clenching my tiny newborn fists, trying to slit my little newborn wrists
|
| So I went to see the rabbi. |
| I said ‘rabbi, why why why why why?'
|
| He said ‘I've read the Torah and I’ve read the Talmud. |
| You get born,
|
| you meet some people & then you die.'
|
| He said ‘everybody has a tiny Pope inside their head!
|
| Go forth and multiply — that’s all the tiny Pope ever says.'
|
| Then he said ‘cause after all is said and done, from womb to tomb and sperm to
|
| worm
|
| There’s nothing much else to do, so you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do:
|
| Dance, dance, dance, and romance
|
| You just can’t help but dance
|
| Dance, dance, dance, and romance
|
| Take off your pants and dance |
