Next Human (xy) Lyrics

Siobhan Donaghy Next Human (xy)

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)
