Make me, make me sweat | |
Til i'm wet, til i'm dry | |
But then wipe this tear from my eye | |
Haven't felt this warm in a long time | |
Even out in the bright sunshine | |
In lifetime of springtimes | |
I fall into your arms | |
With my heart pumpin' on | |
Like a bubblin' dub track | |
Like a garlicy hot tonque and lip smack | |
I did some contemplation | |
Before we got down to this consecration | |
Maybe baby something in you kiss said | |
It was an impetous | |
For me to rethink this | |
If i love you | |
Then i better get tested | |
Make sure we're protected | |
I walk through the park | |
Dressed like a question mark | |
Hark! | |
I hear my memory bark | |
In the back of my brain, | |
Makn' me insane... | |
...like cocaine | |
(chorus) | |
But how'm i gonna live my life if i'm positive? | |
Is it gonna be a negative? | |
How'm i gonna live my life if i'm positive? | |
Is it gonna be a negative? | |
But how'm i gonna live my life if i'm positive? | |
It dawned on me, it seemed to me | |
This is unusual scenery | |
This red light greenery | |
Make me feel kinda dreamery | |
Thinkin' how i used to be | |
Arrive at the clinic | |
Walk through the front door | |
Take a nervous number | |
Then i think about it more | |
About all the time | |
That i neglected | |
Makin sure that | |
I was protected | |
They took my blood | |
With an anonymous number | |
Two weeks waitin' wonderin' | |
I shoulda done this a long time ago | |
Alot of excuses why i couldn't go | |
I know these things and these things i must know | |
'cause it's better to know than to not know! | |
(chorus) | |
I go home to kick it | |
In my apartment | |
I try to give myself | |
A risk assessment | |
The wait is what can really annoy ya | |
Everyday is more paranoya | |
I'm readin' about how it's transmitted | |
Some behavior i must admit it | |
Who i slept with, who they slept with, | |
Who they, who they, who they slept with | |
I think about life and immortality | |
What's the first thing i do if i'm h.i.v | |
Have a cry and tell my mother | |
Get on the phone and call my past lovers | |
I never thought about infectin' anotha | |
All the times that i said 'hmmm? don't bother.' | |
Was it really all that magic? | |
The times i didn't use a prophalactic | |
Would my whole life have to change? | |
Or would my whole life remain the same? | |
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout! | |
All these things too hard to think about | |
A day to laugh, a day to cry | |
A day to live and a day to die | |
'til i find out, i may wonder | |
But i'm not gonna live my life six feet under | |
(chorus) |
Make me, make me sweat | |
Til i' m wet, til i' m dry | |
But then wipe this tear from my eye | |
Haven' t felt this warm in a long time | |
Even out in the bright sunshine | |
