Lyrics
I don't understand love
Its so peculiar
Like dangling toes
in a piranha stream.
Love, where does it come from
From a greyhound bus
under the back seat.
Does it come from the skies and penetrate you,
Like some smart bomb
Shot from you know who?
Chorus:
I don't understand love
Is it a kick from below
Or a kiss from above.
I don't understand love
But I'm trying.
I don't understand love
Its so peculiar
Like skydiving
without a parachute
Love, when its here
its a full court press
Toward an invisible hoop
Like being pinned to the floor by a St. Bernard pup
Its all hot breath and drool
But I don't want to get up.
Chorus:
I don't unerstand love
When it goes
Does it live in the space
Between gluons and quarks
Love, where is it hiding
In the peace corps
Or cliff diving in Acapulco?
Does it wander the forest
Dropping bread crumbs?
If it does are there some
For me to follow?
Chorus:
