uncle bonsai - men and women lyrics

i knew a boy who said that loneliness would k!ll him
until he met a woman who could only give him pain
i knew a girl who said no love could ever fill her
until she met the only man her soul could not contain
they were married in the summer
and they honeymooned in europe
and they settled down near denver
and they hardly said a word
they had two point seven children
and a palace in the suburbs
and their’s is the saddest story that i’ve ever heard
i knew a boy who said that happiness was lethal
until he met a woman who could cut him down to size
i knew a girl who thought that every man was evil
she sorted through her suitors with a venom in her eyes

they were married in the winter
and they settled in the city
and they worked ’til they were tired
and they always seemed to fight
but when no one else could hear them
they would swear their love forever
and whisper through the passion everything’s all right
men and women love each other
men and women try so hard
men and women wander freely
armed and deadly
on their guard
men and women fool their neighbors
men and women rule the world
men and women, movers, shapers
men and women, boys and girls

i knew a boy who said that love could never find him
until he met a woman who would claw her way inside
i knew a girl who said that love would never blind her
until she met the only man the darkness couldn’t hide

so they were married for a while
but they parted in september
when she saw that he was changing
and he knew she wouldn’t die
but she thinks that he’ll remember
and he knows that she’ll forget him
and they still feel they were wrong to say good+bye

men and women cling together
men and women sing off key
men and women wince at incest
prince or princess on their knee
men and women sagging shriners
men and women flags unfurled
men and women, braggers, whiners
men and women boys and girls
he was a quiet man
the neighbors seemed to love him
he always smiled at the children passing by
no one could understand
what demons came to shove him
when he pulled the trigger
when the chainsaw started
was it hard to figure
was he broken+hearted
did the neighbors marvel
at the sudden silence
did he hate to carpool
did it lead to violence
when they close the curtains
and they hide inside
do they know for certain
if he lived or died

men and women stoop to conquer
men and women stoop so low
men and women filled with doubt
they scream about what they don’t know
men and women host and hostess
men and women social climb
men and women fill the churches
still the urges, k!ll some time
men and women take their places
men and women make some noise
men and women, well+scrubbed faces
men and women, girls and boys
