Human Behavior
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.
If you ever get close to a human
And human behavior
Be ready to, ready to get confused
And me and my hair
There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic
To human behavior
And yet so, yet so irresistible
And me and my hair
And there is no map
In society
They're terribly, terribly, terribly moody
And human behavior
Then all of a sudden turn happy
And me and my hair
But, oh, to get involved in the exchange
Of human emotions
Is ever so, ever so satisfying
And me and my hair
Hey, yah
And there is no map
In society
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
And there is no map
And a compass wouldn't help at all
Shine in society
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
Human behavior
