Siobhan Donaghy - XY lyrics

In the descent of man

Heading for extinction

Catch us if you can

I'll make this prediction

You're my XY chromosome

And the love between us

Is fully blown

That's why here at home

I'm you're one and only

XX alone

Gone for all humanity

A Shakespearean tragedy

We're all XY, XX chromosomes

And the love between us

Is very nearly blown

And that's why we are all at home

Feeling lonely

XY, XX alone

XX alone

God will all humanity

Failed to find a remedy

We haven't found a place

Where we can all human kind

Together be

We're all XY, XX chromosomes

And the love between us

Should be fully grown

And that's why we should be all at home

And never lonely

XY, XX all one

I'm dreaming the meaning of words

And what do they all mean?

It's all so absurd

We focus on all the worse things

And we're all full of fear

For what the life brings

You're my XY chromosome

And the love between us

Is fully blown

That's why here at home

I'm you're one and only

XX alone

We're all XY, XX chromosomes

And the love between us

Should be fully grown

And that's why we should be all at home

And never lonely

XY, XX all one

XX alone (rpt to end)
