	Baby, baby, is it true that you never felt the sun upon your skin?
	You know I'll be here on the surface.
	But so I'm all wild and it is never day of the week.
	You gotta be done to live through.
	Scums and thumbs, birds deep in the dirt.
	There's more than one way to get through.
	Slums, big thumbs every day of the week.
	You gotta be done to live through.
	Baby, babe, I hear you from there.
	You almost know what's going on.
	Screamless of coming through.
	Dug too deep to feel the irony.
	Yeah, my thoughts are full glow.
	Maybe I'm not just about to mold.
	Chances are that duck they won't breathe.
	So limit down with all you must submit.
	That if a good one comes, you gotta end.
	Got fungal seats for the goodness.
	Sure.
	Slums and thumbs every day of the week.
	You gotta be done to live through.
