Genetic [Sonic Youth]



Let me tell you every thought that I've come to
When I think of all the things that you do
I can't see if you're the only one, it's hard to say
And I think it's all the same to me today

I can see you two
If I could just see you this one time
I sit alone, everyone's at home

I see it, I believe
Somehow I know it's true
Your genetic kiss to me
I'll live inside of you

I have heard it said before: it'll never happen
Had it drilled in since a kid, makes my head spin
I'm still lookin' for these things that I can't find
Thoughts just come and go, swirlin' thru my mind

I see me and you
Then it's him I'm thinkin' of
We sit alone, no-one else at home

I taste it, I feel
And now I know it's true
Your genetic kiss reveals
I'll always be with you

Hey baby, it's you I'm thinkin' of
Hey baby, who do you love?
Don't worry baby, I'm watchin' even as you sleep
Let me whisper some things for you to keep:

There's no perfect idea
There's no perfect fate
Just little stabs at happiness
Sometimes a little too late
So keep your eyes wide open
And know what you're made of
Remember: first thought: best thought
Try to stay in love
