Body and soul

Let me out
Set me free
Cried the soul
I can’t die
I’m made of air
Cried the soul
I’m not just inside here
I’m everywhere
Cried the soul
Having a bit of a crisis

Oh shut up will you, and I’ll pour us both a drink
Laughed the body
That’s the best way to shut you up, I think
Laughed the body
I’m sick of your mental weakness
Your ignorance
We get born, we become a witness
And then we’re ... removed
Because we’ve got ourselves ...in the way ... of progress
So what was it then? What did you want to drink?
Laughed the body
To nobody

But it says so
But I was told
Cried the soul
We go on, we don't just ... go
Was it a lie?
Cried the soul
I’m better than you
You're nothing to do with me
Cried the soul
I’ll be flying when you're just ... lying

Pipe down, I can’t hear the music
Snapped the body
Our relationship’s becoming abusive
Rapped the body
You’re trying to control everything
Bossing me about
With your annoying thinking
It's giving me a headache
I really don’t wanna listen to your nagging
It's sapping all my energy
You've lost that lovin' synergy

OK, OK, then why
Don’t we ... ask someone else?
Cried the soul
A god, a counsellor, a father figure
Someone we can trust
Cried the soul
We’ve got to or else
We’ll split, we’ll go bust
Cried the soul
I'm sure his verdict will be just

Just what YOU want to hear, I know, I know
Replied the body
No, no, just relax and go with the flow
Sighed the body
Until I decide to stop the heart
Until I decide to pull the plug
Bring to an end our not-so friendly little party
Till then, we’re gonna have to stay stuck, held together
So shut the hell up, you little upstart
Cried the body
And just let me be!
