Promiscuity Lyrics - Which Side Are You On - Ani Difranco

Promiscuity is nothing more than traveling 

There's more than one way to see the world 

And some of us like to stick close to home 

And some of us are Columbus 

What can I say? 

Nature always gets her way 

Nature always gets her way 

And seeing the world through another's eyes 

Is like busting a window in a house of lies 

And in the end you make up your own mind 

And there's wide open spaces 

And little cornered off places 

And check 'em out 

Check 'em out 

Take your time 

How far is too far? 

How much is enough? 

You gotta test this stuff 

I mean how you gonna know 

What you need 

What you like 

Till you been around the block 

A few times on that bike 

I mean how you gonna know 

Who you are 

What you feel 

Till you feel a few things 

That just don't feel real 

And promiscuity is research and development 

Evolution begs embellishment 

And baby you're a star 

And you got two invisible eyes on society 

And when society gets cruel 

Make like you're nature's tool 

Which you are 

And nature always gets her way 

Nature always gets her way 

And monogamy is that carnival trophy you earn 

When you throw that ball into that urn 

It's somewhat dumb luck, somewhat learned 

And you just know when it's your turn 

And honesty is the hardest part 

Yeah honesty is the highest art 

And honestly i myself just started 

And eureka I'm less broken hearted 

I mean how you gonna know 

What you need 

What you like 

Till you been around the block 

A few times on that bike 

I mean how you gonna know 

Who you are 

What you feel 

Till you feel a few things 

That just don't feel real
