Origin Of Love Music Lyrics

When the earth was still flat
And the clouds made of fire
And mountains stretched up to the sky
Sometimes higher
Folks roamed the earth
Like big rolling kegs
They had two sets of arms
They had two sets of legs
They had two faces peering
Out of one giant head
So they could watch all around them
As they talked while they read
And they never knew nothing of love
It was before, uhuh

The origin of love
(Origin of love)
The origin of love
(Origin of love)

Now there was three sexes then
One that looked like two men
Glued up back to back
They were called the children of the sun
And similar in shape and girth
Was the children of the earth
They looked like two girls
Rolled up in one
And the children of the moon
Was like a fork shoved on a spoon
They was part sun, part earth
Part daughter, part son

Uhhh the origin of love

Now the Gods grew quite scared
Of our strength and defiance
And Thor said:
"I'm gonna kill them all
With my hammer,
Like I killed the giants."
But Zeus said: "No,
You better let me
Use my lightning like scissors,
Like I cut the legs off whales
Dinosaurs into lizards."
And then he grabbed up some bolts
He let out a laugh,
Said: "I'll split them right down the middle.
Gonna cut them right down in half."
And then storm clouds gathered above
Into great balls of fire

And then fire shot down
From the sky in bolts
Like shining blades of a knife
And it ripped
Right through the flesh
Of the children of the sun
And the moon
And the earth
And some Indian God
Sewed the wound up into a hole
Pulled it round to our belly
To remind us of the price we pay
And Osiris and the Gods of the Nile
Gathered up a big storm
To blow a hurricane
To scatter us away
A flood of wind and rain
A sea of tidal waves
To wash us all away
And if we don't behave
They'll cut us down again
And we'll be hopping around on one foot
Looking through one eye

The last time I saw you
We had just split in two
You was looking at me
I was looking at you
You had a way so familiar
But I could not recognize
Cause you had blood on your face
I had blood in my eyes
But I could swear by your expression
That the pain down in your soul
Was the same as the one down in mine
That's the pain
That cuts a straight line down through the heart
We called it love
So we wrapped our arms around each other
Trying to shove ourselves back together
We was making love, making love
It was a cold dark evening such a long time ago
When by the mighty hand of Jove
It was the sad story
How we became lonely two-legged creatures
It's the story
of the origin of love
That's the origin of love, oh yeah

The origin of love
The origin of love, uhuh-uhh
The origin of love
