Fragile Lyrics

Here we have "man," formed to perfection

O 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 flush, pretty lady

Wanna have a good time?

Then I'm everything you need

Everything I should be

I make myself sweat

Just lookin' at me

Came in like clay

Malleable and raw

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

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)

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

Done pissed him off

All to prove to you

He'll never be fragile

Never be fragile
