Flesh and Bone

[Verse 1]
If men came from Venus
And women came from Mars
Then I'd be lunching with my boyfriends
While you girls talked about cigars

[Verse 2]
But that's not how it happened
Evolution took a different turn
We may be creatures with some unique features
But we've still got a lot to learn

[Verse 3]
We made it nearly twenty centuries
But your monkeys with Ph.D.'s
Spun a web of communications
But it's all still a tangle to me

[Verse 4]
I can't tell the spiders
From the dangling flies and moths
I feel like like some outsider
Who seems to have his wires all crossed

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't fax you my love, I can't e-mail my heart
I can't see your face in cyberspace, I don't know where to start
I'm light years behind, from the age they call stone
I'm a carbon-based caveman, honey, just flesh and bone

[Chorus 1]
I ain't no clone, I'm just flesh and bone
Trying to connect with you
I ain't no clone, I'm just flesh and bone
Trying to get a message through

[Verse 5]
Now we live in this age of computers
They run everything in the world
And I'm a little behind on this technical climb
And you are an internet girl

[Verse 6]
I've got words, but no processor
I've got feelings, but I don't know DOS
So I just have to go back to basics
To try to get my point across

[Verse 7]
Desperate for a glimpse of the future
We use crystals and cards and dice
And that Y2K is coming our way
They're talking about some worldly strife

[Verse 8]
It's time to think of simpler options
It's time to formulate a big plan B
If your hard drive does crash, I've got some Krugerrands stashed
Come on and sail away with me

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't fax you my love, I can't e-mail my heart
I can't see your face in cyberspace, I don't know where to start
I'm light years behind, from the age they call stone
I'm a carbon-based caveman, honey, just flesh and bone

[Chorus 2]
I ain't no clone, I'm just flesh and bone
Trying to connect with you
I ain't no clone, I'm just flesh and bone
Let's run away to Timbuktu

[Outro]
Oh yeah, baby, come on, run away to the cave
Don't worry, I don't byte
I might nibble a little bit
Here, let me get that for you
Ladies first
