Make me make me sweat
Til iand'm wet til iand'm dry
But then wipe this tear from my eye
Havenand't felt this warm in a long time
Even out in the bright sunshine
In lifetime of springtimes
I fall into your arms
With my heart pumpinand' on
Like a bubblinand' dub track
Like a garlicy hot tonque and lip smack
I did some contemplation
Before we got down to this consecration
Maybe baby something in you kiss said
It was an impetous
For me to rethink this
If i love you
Then i better get tested
Make sure weand're protected
I walk through the park
Dressed like a question mark
Hark!
I hear my memory bark
In the back of my brain,
Maknand' me insane...
...like cocaine
(chorus)
But howand'm i gonna live my life if iand'm positive?
Is it gonna be a negative?
Howand'm i gonna live my life if iand'm positive?
Is it gonna be a negative?
But howand'm i gonna live my life if iand'm positive?
It dawned on me, it seemed to me
This is unusual scenery
This red light greenery
Make me feel kinda dreamery
Thinkinand' how i used to be
Arrive at the clinic
Walk through the front door
Take a nervous number
Then i think about it more
About all the time
That i neglected
Makin sure that
I was protected
They took my blood
With an anonymous number
Two weeks waitinand' wonderinand'
I shoulda done this a long time ago
Alot of excuses why i couldnand't go
I know these things and these things i must know
and'cause itand's better to know than to not know!
(chorus)
I go home to kick it
In my apartment
I try to give myself
A risk assessment
The wait is what can really annoy ya
Everyday is more paranoya
Iand'm readinand' about how itand's transmitted
Some behavior i must admit it
Who i slept with, who they slept with,
Who they, who they, who they slept with
I think about life and immortality
Whatand's the first thing i do if iand'm h.i.v
Have a cry and tell my mother
Get on the phone and call my past lovers
I never thought about infectinand' anotha
All the times that i said andquot;hmmm? donand't bother.andquot;
Was it really all that magic?
The times i didnand't use a prophalactic
Would my whole life have to change?
Or would my whole life remain the same?
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout!
All these things too hard to think about
A day to laugh, a day to cry
A day to live and a day to die
and'til i find out, i may wonder
But iand'm not gonna live my life six feet under
(chorus)
