The food I eat
Becomes part of me
And the water I drink

Are the thoughts I think

The light of the sun

Is in my blood
And the stuff of stars
Runs through my veins


I am made of
What I'm made of

A thousand trillion itty bitty bugs
Without whom I wouldn't be me


I am made of
What I'm made of
Water that Cleopatra drank

Without whom I would't be me

The air I breathe

Has been everything
From hydrogen to zinc
And all that in between


My ancestors
Humans and creatures

I wouldn't be here singing
If anyone of them had died


Human, clever human
Making connections
You're hard wired for sex

Like you're wired for patterns
Oh human, silly human
You've simply got to know

But there's a reason that tree was forbidden
You'd do better to take it slow


Neurons fire
In a brain haywire
And that electricity, well, that is me


Chemicals mix
And I get my fix

And in combination all that is me` 0-0-
