LYRICS

I'm the shy boy
You're the coy boy
And you know we're Homosapien, too
I'm the cruiser
You're the loser
Me and you, sir, Homosapien, too

Homo-superior
In my interior
But from the skin out, I'm Homosapien, too
And you're Homosapien, too
And I'm Homosapien like you
And we're Homosapien, too

And I think of your eyes in the dark and I see you as stars
And I look to the light and I might wonder right where you are
I just want this to last or my future is past and all gone
And if this is the case then I'll lose in life's race from now on

I'm the shy boy
You're the coy boy
And you know we're Homosapien, too
I'm the cruiser
You're the loser
Me and you, sir, Homosapien, too

Homo-superior
In my interior
But from the skin out, I'm Homosapien, too
And you're a Homosapien, too
And I'm Homosapien like you
And we're Homosapien, too

And I just hope and pray that the day of our love is at hand
You and I, me and you, we will be one from two, understand?
That the world is so wrong that I hope that you'll be strong enough
For we are on our own and the only thing known is our love
Don't wanna classify you like an animal in the zoo
But it seems good to me to know that you're Homosapien, too

I'm the shy boy
You're the coy boy

Don't wanna classify you like an animal in the zoo
But it seems good to me to know that you're Homosapien, too
Don't wanna classify you like an animal in the zoo
But it seems good to me to know that you're Homosapien, too
Don't wanna classify you like an animal in the zoo
But it seems good to me to know that you're Homosapien, too
