[Jonathan Richman - These Bodies That Came to Cavort lyrics]

These bodies that came to cavort
These bodies that came to contort
These bodies that we don't listen to anyway

Came to move with the times
Came to play outside
These bodies that we make sit down all day

These bodies, they don't want all the wine
We give them they try to warn us off
But we won't listen

Okay, so let's start them up
They're ready to run and jump
These bodies, they came to dance for a day
These bodies that we don't listen to anyway

These bodies that came to cavort
These bodies that came to contort
These bodies we make stay still all day

They wanna play outside
Move with the moon and tide
These bodies that we don't listen to anyway
They're so mysterious and so we fear them
They try to warn us but we can't hear them

Okay, so let's start them up
They're ready to do their stuff
These bodies, they came to dance for a day
These bodies that we don't listen to anyway
