[Verse 1]
E
I'm the shy boy, you're the coy boy
G D E
And you know we're Homosapien too
E
I'm the cruiser, you're the loser
G D E
Me and you sir, Homosapien too
E
Homosuperior in my interior
But from the skin out
G D E
I'm Homosapien too
G D E
And you're Homosapien too
G D E
And I'm Homosapien like you
G D E
And we're Homosapien too
[Chorus]
A E D
And I think of your eyes in the dark
A E
And I see the star
A E
And I look to the light
D A E
And I might wonder right where you are
A E D
All the Gods in the sky, way up high
A E
See the world spinning 'round
A E
But the sun and the moon
D A E
And the stars are so far from the ground
[Verse 2]
E
I'm the shy boy, you're the coy boy
G D E
And you know we're Homosapien too
E
I'm the cruiser, you're the loser
G D E
Me and you sir, Homosapien too
E
Homosuperior in my interior
But from the skin out
G D E
I'm Homosapien too
G D E
And you're Homosapien too
G D E
And I'm Homosapien like you
G D E
And we're Homosapien too
[Chorus]
A E D
And the worlds built of age are a stage
A E
Where we act out our lives
A E D
And the words in the script seem to fit
A E
'Cept we have some surprise
A E
I just want this to last
D A E
Or my future is past and all gone
A E
And if this is the case
D A E
Then I'll lose in life's race from now on
[Verse 3]
E
Homosuperior in my interior
But from the skin out
G D E
I'm Homosapien too
G D D
And you're Homosapien too
G D E
And I'm Homosapien like you
G D E
And we're Homosapien too
[Chorus]
A E
And I just hope and pray
D A E
That the day of our love is at hand
A E
You and I, me and you
D A E
We will be one from two, understand?
A E
And the world is so wrong
D A E
That I hope that we'll be strong enough
A E
For we are on our own
D A E
And the only thing known is our love
A E
I don't wanna classify you
D A E
Like an animal in the zoo
A E
But it seems good to me to know
D A E
That you're Homosapien too
E
I'm the shy boy, you're the coy boy
[Outro]
A E
I don't wanna classify you
D A E
Like an animal in the zoo
A E
But it seems good to me to know
D A E
That you're Homosapien too
A E
I don't wanna classify you
D A E
Like an animal in the zoo
A E
But it seems good to me to know
D A E
That you're Homosapien too
A E
I don't wanna classify you
D A E
Like an animal in the zoo
A E
But it seems good to me to know
D A E
That you're Homosapien too
