The mind won’t rest, puts you to the test
Body knows better, any kind of weather
 
Body knows best, never second guess
The mind is a tether holding you together too tight
 
(so tight!) you gotta lay it on the side
 
The signs said yes, passing every test
Your mouth said, ‘forever’, but my body knew better
 
Howdja go and get to be a liar
Shifty little dancer on a wire
I’m breaking, not broken, saner words were spoken
You coulda been everything, I couldn’t get to know ya
Know I’m right
 
You gotta keep it on side (so tight!)
You gotta lay it on the side
 
Who’s right? who’s right? who’s right?
 
Body blows, take it to the pros
In the throes, don’t nobody know
Who goes, who stays all night
I’ll be your real, your wrong or right

The body knows best
Nevermind the rest
The mind is a tether
Holding you together too tight
 
You gotta keep it on side  (so tight!)
You gotta lay it on the side
 
Who’s right?  who’s right?
 
All that time putting up a fight
How we wrestle in the night
Who’s right?
 
The body knows best, never mind the rest
The mind is a tether holding you together
 
The signs said yes, passing every test
Your mouth said, ‘forever’, but my body knew better
