Maybe we're nothing but skin and boneBlare and rubber, eyes that blubberTeeth that bite, hands that slideAnd I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of manMaybe we're nothing but skin and boneNerves that shatter, tongues that flatterLips that mutter, lashes that flutterMounds of dust and lips of ripeTwice as vicious as the words I typeUnder a ribbon of every stripeThere's a grip that tightens, a dark that frightensA wise that crackles, a fear that shacklesAnd I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of manAnd then that kinder creationBecomes a fine fixationAll of a suddenWith the parts we've hiddenBecause they are forbiddenBeneath a hide of pain, you'll find a soul of stainWhile fists still beat, at heart's deceitAnd I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of manMaybe with nothing but a drum and droneI want to beat it 'til I get unknownPig some skin, stretch it tightMake myself up overnightMaybe this is nothing but drum and droneWanna beat it 'til I get unknownDig my pin, kick up some stinkFind myself a brand new kinkPrick that berry and squeeze this inkScratch out all of the words I thinkBefore your very eyes can blinkAnd I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of man
Lyrics by Elvis Costello & The Imposters
