Mercedes:
Looking out
Across the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear his voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Sam:
Get me out
Into the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me tonight
If this town
Is just an apple
Then let me take a bite
Mercedes:
If they say
Mercedes and Sam:
Why? Why?
Tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why
Mercedes:
Does he do me that way?
If they say
Mercedes and Sam:
Why? Why?
Tell 'em that it's human nature
Sam:
Why? (Mercedes: Why?) Why?
Mercedes:
Does he do me that way, yeah
Sam:
Reaching out
To touch a stranger
Mercedes and Sam:
Electric eyes are everywhere (Mercedes: Ooh)
Sam:
See that girl?
She knows I'm watching
She likes the way I stare
Mercedes:
If they say
Mercedes and Sam:
Why? Why?
Tell 'em that it's human nature
Why? Oh, why?
Does he do me that way?
Mercedes:
If they say
Sam:
Why? (Mercedes: Why?) Why?
Mercedes and Sam:
Tell 'em that it's human nature
Sam:
Why? (Mercedes: Why?) Oh, why?
Mercedes and Sam:
Does he do me that way?
Mercedes:
I like livin' this way
Sam:
I like lovin' this way
Mercedes:
Oh, why, oh, why
Oh, why, oh, why
Looking out
Across the morning
Where the city's heart begins to beat
Reaching out
I touch his shoulder
Mercedes and Sam:
I'm dreaming of the street
Mercedes:
And they say
Sam:
Why? (Mercedes: Why?) Why? (Mercedes: Why, why, why, why)
Mercedes and Sam:
Tell 'em hat it's human nature
Why? Why?
Does he do me that way?
Sam:
Why? (Mercedes: Dooby-doo-why) Why? (Mercedes: Dooby-doo-why, ooh)
Tell 'em that (with Mercedes: it's human nature)
Mercedes and Sam:
Why?
Sam:
Why?
Mercedes and Sam:
Does he do me that way?
Mercedes:
I like livin' this way
Sam:
I like lovin' this way
Mercedes:
Oh, why, oh, why
Oh, why, oh, why
Mercedes and Sam:
Why? Why?
Tell 'em that it's human nature
Why?
