I like that middle initial
I like the way it serves me
I like the pigment in your skin
I like the way it moves me
I like kids when they're asleep
their little arms around you
I like the way we play games
don't lose that skin feeling

I'm looking old, I'm feeling young
it's the truth , my child
My second life has just begun
with this hungry girl

I like black and I like rain
I like that ornery circle
I like the things that you said
when you were misbehaving
I like the people on TV
the new one looks like me
I love you and you love me
don't lose that skin feeling

I love the pigment in your skin
I love the way it moves me
I like the smell of that shock
I like the way it serves me
I like the things that you said
when you were misbehaving
I love you and you love me
don't lose that skin feeling

It's the truth my child
let me hold you high
