How To Be A Human
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
They like to drink
They like to smoke
They like to eat
And when they eat it's 'til they choke
They like to fight
They like to steal
They like to lie and cheat
And then pretend it's real
They'll turn it up and get it real loud
They like to dive right off the stage into the crowd
They want it all, then want some more
And when it's gone, it's gone and then they'll start a war
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
Those city lights light up the fight
They shine on all the evil things you do tonight
Don't be ashamed, it's just their way
It's how the live and not the kind of place you stay
They'll turn it up and get it real loud
They like to dive right off the stage into the crowd
They want it all, then want some more
It's a fact they say they're rotten to the core
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
Let's go
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
They live on planet
Planet Earth
They live on planet Earth
They live on planet
Planet Earth
They live on planet Earth
They'll turn it up and get it real loud
They like to dive right off the stage into the crowd
They want it all, then want some more
And when it's gone, it's gone and then they'll start a war
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
This is how to be
This is how to be
This is how to be a human
Like monkeys in a tree crawling from the sea
This is how to be a human
They live on planet
Planet Earth
They live on planet Earth
They live on planet
Planet Earth
They live on planet Earth
