VIOLENT FEMMES

- I Danced Lyrics

I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet

And sang before I had a tongue
I laughed before I had two eyes
Loved before my heart was young
I swam before I had two hands
And held the distance in my toes
Before I heard the stars I knew
The wild compulsion of the rose

I bore the fruits of many lies
Before I came into this day
I knew before my grave was made
Worms eat only death away
The worms eat only death away

And sang before I had a tongue
I laughed before I had two eyes
Loved before my heart was young
I swam before I had two hands
And held the distance in my toes
Before I heard the stars I knew
The wild compulsion of the rose

I bore the fruits of many lies
Before I came into this day
I knew before my grave was made
Worms eat only death away
The worms eat only death away

I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet

I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet
I danced before I had two feet
