- Only Human LyricsA squirrel in the tree, is he watching me?
Does he give a damn? Does he care who I am?
I?m just a man, is that all I am?
Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human?
I?m human
Murderous crow, hey, what you know?
What you reading about? What you hold in your toes?
Is that a twig? Are you a dove of peace?
Black dove undercover with another puzzle piece
Are you a riddle to solve all along?
Or am I overthinking thoughts, I'm human after all
Only human, made of flesh, made of sand
Made of human
The planet?s talking about a revolution
The natural laws ain?t got no constitution
They?ve got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradise
?Cause we?re only human
Oh yes we are, only human
If it?s our only excuse, do you think we?ll keep on being only human?
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far
Up in the major?s tree
The one he planted back when he was just a boy
Back in 1923
Thirty meters and a foot, take a look, take a climb
What you?ll find is the product of a seed
The seed is sown, all alone
It grows above with a heart of love
A sharpened shelter of
The animals of land and cold weather breathing
We?re all breathing
The planet?s talking about a revolution
The natural laws ain?t got no constitution
They?ve got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradise
?Cause we?re only human
Oh yes we are, only human
If it?s our only excuse, do you think we?ll keep on being only human?
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far
And this place it will outlive me
Before I get to heaven I?ll climb that tree
And I will have to give my thanks
For giving me the branch to swing on
If I ever fall in love
I?ll hope to give myself a baby
I will let my children have their way
Because we?re only human
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far
So far, so far
Does he give a damn? Does he care who I am?
I?m just a man, is that all I am?
Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human?
I?m human
Murderous crow, hey, what you know?
What you reading about? What you hold in your toes?
Is that a twig? Are you a dove of peace?
Black dove undercover with another puzzle piece
Are you a riddle to solve all along?
Or am I overthinking thoughts, I'm human after all
Only human, made of flesh, made of sand
Made of human
The planet?s talking about a revolution
The natural laws ain?t got no constitution
They?ve got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradise
?Cause we?re only human
Oh yes we are, only human
If it?s our only excuse, do you think we?ll keep on being only human?
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far
Up in the major?s tree
The one he planted back when he was just a boy

Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far

Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far
So far, so far

When we delve into what the artist truly meant to convey, using animals and nature as metaphors, Jason Mraz's 'Only Human' meditates on the human condition and as a result, touches on the themes of self-examination, the environment's destruction by man, and the quest for love and friendship. Only human lyrics mainly highlight this whole process of reflection, social comment, nature, angst and inspiration. However, the song at the same time emphasizes the aspects of human character and flaws, the consequences and responsibilities regarding the environment, the passing of time and the creation of one's character through the process of reflection and self-awareness. The lyrics present some mature themes and use a bit of foul language throughout, thus probably requiring parental guidance for very young children. The concepts of human nature, environmental impact and personal reflection run through the lyrics and are appropriate for kids but might still need to be discussed together with parents.
