NATURE OF THE BEAST
1st Verse
Well I love my man but he’s hard to understand
Cause we’re not wired the same
Sometimes it aggravates cause he won’t communicate
They say it’s just not in his DNA
I get no fancy words, no flowery speech
But I know his feelings for me run deep
Guess you have to take the bitter with the sweet
That’s just the nature of the beast
2nd Verse
He weighs 200 pounds, His arms are big around
As the limbs on a tree
If another man even touches my hand
He’s gonna growl and show his teeth
He’s got a little problem with jealousy
But I like knowing he’d fight for me
Guess you have to take the bitter with the sweet
That’s just the nature of the beast
Bridge:
He likes action, I like romance
He likes sports, I like to dance
He’s my Tarzan, I’m his Jane
we weren’t meant to be the same
Hans' incredible howling guitar lead :-)
3rd Verse
He’s got testosterone and the Y chromosome
And different anatomy
When the moon is full and it starts to pull
We fit together perfectly
Sometimes I wish he was more like me
But that would be like having two left feet
Guess you have to take the bitter with the
4th Verse
We have our ups and downs, sometimes go round and round
Middle ground is hard to find
But when he turns on the charm and takes me in his arms
I’m so happy I could die
Love and life are full of irony
Instead of the same we’re what each other needs
You have to take the bitter with the sweet
that’s just the nature of the beast
