You went into the kitchen cupboard
Got yourself another hour
And you gave half of it to me
We sat there looking at the faces
Of these strangers in the pages
Till we knew them mathematically
They were in our minds till forever
But we didn't mind we didn't know better
So we made our own computer out of macaroni pieces
And it did our thinking while we lived our lives
We counted up our feelings and divided them up even
And I called that calculation perfect love
Didn't even know that love was bigger
Didn't even know that love was so so
Hey hey hey hey this fire it's burning burning us up
Hey this fire it's burning burning us
Ah oh
Oh
So we made the hard decision
And we each made an incision
Past our muscles and our bones
Our hearts were little stones
Pulled them out
They weren't beating and we weren't even bleeding
As we lay them on the granite countertop
We beat 'em up against each other
We beat 'em up against each other
We struck them hard
Against each other
We struck them so hard so hard till they sparked
Hey this fire it's burning burning us up
Hey this fire it's burning burning us up
Hey this fire it's burning burning us
Ah
Ooh
