Fragile Lyrics

Here we have "man," formed to perfection!

By the grace of god I'm naked to the eye!

I am the work myself, you see

Creator and his masterpiece 

So gaze upon this paragon of pure virility! 

Let me describe the piece

Note the taper of my body

Thick back, thin waist

Combine for a perfect V

Do I intimidate you buddy

Make you run and hide?

You feeling flushed, pretty lady

Wanna have a good time? 

Then I'm everything you need

Everything I should be

Make myself sweat just looking at me

Came in like clay

Malleable and raw

Got burned and learned

How I could be

Everything you want

So I chipped away

At anything that made me soft

All to prove to you

I'll never be fragile

Now, my conversations feed the piece's image

Aggressive postures worthy of a modern-day Hercules 

Rock!

"Meet you out in the back somewhere" or

"Name a place, and I'll be there" and I

Shaped the fists so they're always up

Set 'em in stone so you know I'm man enough

Came in like clay

Malleable and raw

But I got burned and learned

How I could be

Everything you want

So I chipped away

Anything made me feel soft

All to prove to you

I'll never be fragile

Don't touch me

I'll fall to pieces

Don't touch me

I'll fall to pieces

Do I invite your fear, your trust

Your awe, your worship

Your carnal lust?

Cause I gotta be the cock of walk

No matter what the cost

No matter what I've lost

The piece cannot look inside

And see what's going on

No you never no!

The piece never takes the time 

To know himself at all

He just walks the world

Like the ground

Has pissed him off

All to prove to you

He'll never be fragile

Never be fragile
