Squirm » Songtext
von Dave Matthews Band

Please find your place, the room grows scarce
Once we′re all inside the service can begin
For a moment if you please forget what you believe
And naked you will see that we are all the same

The power of your kiss, your words, your lips
Your flesh, your bones, exactly what you need
Your flesh, your bones, exactly what you need

Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder

Why should I feel intrusion?
Why be afraid of what you do not understand?
To eliminate exclusion
Cut out the differences, feel like you belong

Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder


Open up your head
Open up you primitive
Open up your mouth and
Open up your head
You sweet primitive
Open up your mouth
It's coming out

Out there with no food or drink
How many days do you think you′d last?
All your diamonds and your pearls
I'm not a king, no
Not a hero, not a fool
I'm not perfect, I′m flesh and bone
And I′m exactly what you need

Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder

Open up your head
Open up you primitive
Open up your mouth and
Open up your head
You sweet primitive
Open up your mouth
It's coming out


Open up your head
Sweet, sweet primitive
Tell me what you said
What you said

The power of your kiss
Your words, your lips
Not a gun to your head
You′re gonna die before you're dead
It′s not sad when you're gone
But when your light′s still on
Your wings won't let you fly
Don't be dead before you die

Hunger until fed, give love instead
When it gets inside, watch the dead man squirm
Above all things if kindness is your king
Then heaven will be yours before you meet your end

Open up your head
Open up you primitive
Open up your mouth and
Open up your head
You sweet primitive
Open up your mouth
It′s coming out

Open up your head
Open up you primitive
Open up your mouth and
Open up your head
You sweet primitive
Open up your mouth
It′s coming out

Drum beats louder
