Metamorphosis

Please allow me to try and explain I'm living proof that man can change I knew what I wanted I knew how to get it It didn't make me happy so I started again What I wanted to be was a family man but nature had some alternative plans So I did without the lot put emotion on hold and hoped my instincts would do what they were told I wanna know, yeah I wanna know But every now and then often at night a particular feeling would surface in spite of what I'd told myself and tried to deny I kept on asking the question: why? Why? Why? Why? I wanna know You grow up and experience this a total metamorphosis It's all about change It's a metamorphosis With time and age I had to change 'cause my behaviour was getting strange People on the street caught my eye and I began to think I might be their kind of guy The long-term suppression of an adolescent urge was in retreat and I was on the verge of falling in love or having fun Time was running out Something had to be done I wanna know, yeah I wanna know Where was I? Laying down the law dancing with the others out on the floor Music and smoke What did it mean? Somebody spoke and I went into a dream I had what I wanted Madly in love Nothing else mattered This was enough Questions were answered which used to perplex in particular those about the big s.e.x. I wanna know, yeah I wanna know I wanna know, yeah Tell me what's the reason Tell me what's the reason You grow up and experience this a total metamorphosis It's all about love It's a metamorphosis Dreaming is easy, life is tough I got the picture The most important thing is not to end up bitter 'cause when you start to feel increasingly forlorner - woomph! - love comes right around the corner It may not last but here am I once a caterpillar now a butterfly It can seem strange but when you reminisce It's all about change It's a metamorphosis It's all about love It's a metamorphosis
