Eve's Lament

[verse]

First god created Adam

But poor Adam was all alone

So God said one second, man

I'll fix it with your bone

And God created Eve

Tailor-made just for him

But no one ever thought to ask

The needs of this woman

Well it started out alright

The garden was mighty fine

She had all the grapes that she could eat

Plus goblets filled with wine

And Adam was quite handsome

With a mighty big fig leaf

But then he'd open up his mouth

Eve just thought, good grief

[chorus]

I want more, more, more

I want more

There's a big bad world around us

That I'm dying to explore

No more flowers

No more glee

I just want to

Get you know you biblically

[verse]

But Adam was a simple man

Content to sit and pray

Eve was bored out of her gourd

And started to dismay

She want to God and cried

We're clearly not a fit

Did you make me from his funny bone

Cause the man has zero wit

[chorus]

I want more, more, more

I want more

There's a big bad world around us

That I'm dying to explore

Take my rib bone

Hell, take five

Fashion someone who'll make me

Finally feel alive

[verse]

But the good Lord refused to listen

Told Eve to just push through

But what good is living in paradise

When there's nothing here to do

I feel you, said the serpent

It's a paradise for men

The rest of us are forced to just

Try to fit right in

[chorus]

But you want more

So much more

Cause there's a big bad world around you

That you're dying to explore

There is a way out

Of these treacly garden gates

Follow me and i will give you

Just a tiny taste

[breakdown]

Then suddenly the world went dark

The flowers withered dry

Post Eve stared at her naked breasts

And started to cry

Adam came rushing over

Stupid woman what have you done

Eve looked up with tears of joy

My prison walls are gone

[chorus]

I want more, more, more

I want more

There's a big bad world around us

That i'm going to explore

No more longing

I am free

I've packed my bags

I'm leaving

It's not you, Adam, it's me
