The Fundamental Things - Bonnie Raitt

Let’s run naked through these city streets

We’re all captives of captivity

Let’s wear madness like a crucifix

Let’s tattoo Bible quotes across both our hips

Let’s get back to the fundamental things

Let’s get back to the elements of style

Let’s get back to simple skin on skin

Let’s get back to the fundamental things

Let’s dance barefoot over broken glass

Slither like a snake does through the wet, cold grass

Howl and tremble in a sleepless grind

Let’s do the braindrain, leave it all behind

You can sit in your room and worry

You can contemplate the end

Or let your house burn down behind you

Run bare-ass through the streets again

You can hide out on your rooftop

Wishing you had never been

Or go down to Hal’s bar and grill

Find your innocence again
