Todd Rundgren Flesh & Blood Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's the tom-tom-tom beat of the medicine man
Driving the e-ye-ye-vil spirits back to a rhythmless land
Now it's a la-ya-yaptop and a microphone
Fifty thou-wow-wow-sand watts and still going strong
You hear the bang-bang-bangin' of the drum machine
You can't help bow-wow-wouncin' like a Mexican jumping bean
Soon every-by-yi-yody has the urge to move
It's like an o-wo-ocean swelling to the thunderous groove

[Chorus]
You got free will but you're flesh and blood
You can't stand still 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits you like a flash flood
Then you can't stop moving 'cause you're flesh and blood

There's no resistance 'cause we're flesh and blood
We go that distance 'cause we're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits us like a flash flood
Then we keep on moving 'cause we're flesh and blood

[Verse 2]
Now the crou-wow-wowd starts to move as one
You lose your mi-yi-yind 'cause it's so much primitive fun (Fun)
You feel that ruh-ruh-rumbling way down below
That synthesi-yi-yizer noise begins to grow and grow
It hypnoti-yi-yizes everyone in the room
Then the emcee drops it and the bottom goes boom
There ain't a so-wo-woul isn't covered in sweat
And the LEDs are flashing but it ain't nearly over yet

[Chorus] You got free will but you're flesh and blood
You can't stand still 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits you like a flash flood
Then you keep on moving 'cause you're flesh and blood

There's no resistance 'cause you're flesh and blood
You go that distance 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits you like a flash flood
Then you keep on moving 'cause you're flesh and blood

[Chorus]
You got free will but you're flesh and blood
You can't stand still 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits you like a flash flood
Then you can't stop moving 'cause you're flesh and blood

There's no resistance 'cause you're flesh and blood
We go that distance 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits us like a flash flood
Then we keep on moving 'cause you're flesh and blood

[Chorus]
You got free will but you're flesh and blood
You can't stand still 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits you like a flash flood
Then you can't stop moving 'cause you're flesh and blood

There's no resistance 'cause you're flesh and blood
We go that distance 'cause you're flesh and blood
When that wall of sound hits us like a flash flood
Then we keep on moving 'cause we're flesh and blood
