Barenaked Ladies - Stomach vs. Heart lyrics

[Barenaked Ladies - Stomach vs. Heart lyrics]

In through my veins without brains
I involuntarily take what I need
Then I bleed and it comes right back to me

But guts only eat and sometimes
They repeat on you
Keeping you on your toes or
Crouched above the loo
That's what you get when you confuse
Your stomach with your heart
Well that's what you get when you
Confuse your stomach with your heart

Blood turns from blue into red
Cause of oxygen that it's fed
And I turn back to blue cause I'm losing you

But tummy just growls not real words
Mostly vowels
And I always forget sometimes why
Gratification can cause constipation
If organs are left to die
That's what you get when you confuse
Your stomach with your heart
Well that's what you get when you
Confuse your stomach with your heart

I gained all this weight out of love
Not hate i've got so much love to give
Give me a break i'd love to sleep in late
But that dessert looks great
Was it something I said or
Was it something I ate?

Heart beats in sync, beat in time
Beat in bodies likes hers and mine
But I fed only one and look what it's done

Cause I've run out of blood and
I'm chewing my cud and
My gastrointestinal festival's best of all
Cardiovascular questions they ask you are
Less than the answers they give
You like cancer and
That's what you get when you confuse
Your stomach with your heart
That's what you get when you confuse
Your stomach with your heart
