Origin of love


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 the origin of love
Origin of love
The origin of love
Origin of love
And 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 stuck on a spoon
They was part sun part earth part daughter part son
Oh the origin of love
Well 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'd better let me use my lightning like scissors
Like i cut the legs off the 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 up in half"
And the 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 to a hole
Pulled around to our bellies to remind us the price we payed
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 'round on one foot
And looking through one eye
The last time i saw you we had just split in two
He was looking at me, i was looking at you
You had a way so familiar 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 call it love
We wrapped our arms around each other
Tried 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 a sad story how we became lonely two-legged creatures
The story, the origin of love
That's the origin of love
Oh yeah, the origin of love
The origin of love
The origin of love

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
