The Ascent of Man

[00:00.21] So hesitation pulled me back
[00:05.46] I'm stronger when I don't attract
[00:09.41] In your eyes I'm a lamb without a rack
[00:14.48] And I am getting confused
[00:16.53] I'm a cactus trying to be a canoe
[00:24.48] As you pan for ore
[00:26.23] In the desert, floored
[00:28.31] I say to you
[00:31.83] That I could never imagine a place so beautiful
[00:40.01] I could never steal your gold away
[00:46.25] Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[00:52.32] (I try to walk like a big wham bam
[00:59.32] I came across like a battering ram
[01:03.12] I try to float like a telegram sam
[01:07.38] I'm trying to divine you.)
[01:10.73] My book is called "The Ascent Of Man"
[01:24.90] I marked your chapter with a catamaran
[01:28.28] The accent's off
[01:30.55] But I am what I am
[01:34.00] Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[01:40.22] (I try to walk like a big wham bam
[01:46.33] I came across like a battering ram
[01:51.65] I try to float like a telegram sam
[01:55.62] I'm trying to divine you.)
[01:59.15] I looked for you, it's my last grandstand
[02:36.32] A motorscootered goat legged pan
[02:40.27] Figure eighting in quicksand...
[02:46.22] Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[02:54.94] (I try to walk like a big wham bam
[02:59.37] I try to float like a telegram sam
[03:02.16] I came across like a battering ram
[03:04.09] I'm trying to divine you.)
[03:08.18] (I try to walk like a big wham bam
[03:15.71] I try to float like a telegram sam
[03:17.52] I came across like a battering ram
[03:20.41] I'm trying to divine you.)
[03:28.32] So hesitation pulled me back
[03:43.41] I'm so in love I don't attract
[03:48.01] And with my hands tied I won't crack
[03:49.11] ('Cause in my mind I called you back.)
