The Origin of Love[00:00:02]

(From "Hedwig and the Angry Inch")[00:00:02]

- Musical Mania[00:00:04]

When the earth was still flat [00:00:17]

And the clouds made of fire [00:00:20]

And mountains stretched up to the sky [00:00:23]

Sometimes higher [00:00:26]

Folks roamed the earth[00:00:30]

Like big rolling kegs [00:00:32]

They had two sets of arms [00:00:34]

They had two sets of legs [00:00:37]

They had two faces peering[00:00:39]

Out of one giant head[00:00:42]

So they could watch all around them[00:00:44]

As they talked; while they read [00:00:47]

And they never knew nothing of love [00:00:49]

It was before the origin of love [00:00:54]

The origin of love[00:01:01]

The origin of love[00:01:04]

The origin of love[00:01:06]

And there were three sexes then [00:01:09]

One that looked like two men[00:01:12]

Glued up back to back [00:01:14]

Called the children of the sun [00:01:16]

And similar in shape and girth[00:01:19]

Were the children of the earth [00:01:21]

They looked like two girls[00:01:24]

Rolled up in one [00:01:26]

And the children of the moon[00:01:29]

Looked like a fork shoved on a spoon [00:01:31]

They was part sun part earth [00:01:34]

Part daughter part son [00:01:36]

The origin of love [00:01:43]

Now the gods grew quite scared[00:01:49]

Of our strength and defiance[00:01:51]

And Thor said [00:01:53]

"I'm gonna kill them all[00:01:55]

With my hammer [00:01:56]

Like I killed the giants "[00:01:57]

But the Zeus said "No [00:02:00]

You better let me[00:02:02]

Use my lightning like scissors [00:02:03]

Like I cut the legs off the whales[00:02:05]

And dinosaurs into lizards "[00:02:08]

Then he grabbed up some bolts[00:02:10]

And he let out a laugh [00:02:13]

Said "I'll split them right down the middle [00:02:15]

Gonna cut them right up in half "[00:02:17]

And then storm clouds gathered above[00:02:20]

Into great balls of fire[00:02:24]

And then fire shot down[00:02:34]

From the sky in bolts[00:02:38]

Like shining blades[00:02:40]

Of a knife [00:02:41]

And it ripped[00:02:44]

Right through the flesh[00:02:45]

Of the children of the sun[00:02:47]

And the moon[00:02:49]

And the earth [00:02:50]

And some Indian god[00:02:52]

Sewed the wound up into a hole [00:02:54]

Pulled it round to our belly[00:02:57]

To remind us of the price we pay [00:02:58]

And Osiris and the gods of the Nile[00:03:02]

Gathered up a big storm[00:03:06]

To blow a hurricane [00:03:08]

To scatter us away [00:03:10]

In a flood of wind and rain [00:03:14]

And a sea of tidal waves [00:03:16]

To wash us all away [00:03:18]

And if we don't behave[00:03:21]

They'll cut us down again[00:03:23]

And we'll be hopping around on one foot[00:03:25]

And looking through one eye [00:03:28]

Last time I saw you[00:03:52]

We had just split in two [00:03:54]

You was looking at me [00:03:56]

I was looking at you [00:03:59]

You had a way so familiar [00:04:01]

But I could not recognize [00:04:03]

Cause you had blood on your face;[00:04:05]

I had blood in my eyes [00:04:08]

But I could swear by your expression[00:04:10]

That the pain down in your soul[00:04:11]

Was the same as the one down in mine [00:04:15]

That's the pain [00:04:19]

Cuts a straight line[00:04:22]

Down through the heart [00:04:24]

We called it love [00:04:26]

So we wrapped our arms around each other [00:04:28]

Trying to shove ourselves back together [00:04:31]

We was making love [00:04:33]

Making love [00:04:35]

It was a cold dark evening [00:04:38]

Such a long time ago [00:04:40]

When by the mighty hand of Jove [00:04:42]

It was the sad story[00:04:47]

How we became[00:04:49]

Lonely two-legged creatures [00:04:50]

It's the story of[00:04:52]

The origin of love[00:04:54]
