"A Little Bit Of Soul" lyrics

"A Little Bit Of Soul"

What would you be if you weren't an animal?
Who would you eat if you were a cannibal?
Where do we go when our evolution is done?

You're going home, you're tired of incident
Kicked in the head by a nasty accident
One with only half opposable thumbs

Give me mine is what we're told
When all we need's a little bit of soul
Give it up and give away
It's only yours to borrow anyway

What will you have when there's nothing left to take?
Who will you hit when there's no one left to hate?
Where will you go when you're going out on your own?

We're all born in total ignorance
Perfect as a happy accident
Lose yourself, see how far you can go

Give me silver, give me gold
But all we need's a little bit of soul
Give it up and give away
It's only yours to borrow anyway

Give me mine is what we're told
When all we need's a little bit of soul
Give it up and give away
It's only yours to borrow anyway

What would you be if you weren't an animal?
Who would you eat if you were a cannibal?
Where do we go when our evolution is done?
