It’s the Truth
[Verse 1]
It's big and round
It's deep and flat
It's sometimes small
It's soft, it's fat
I lined my home with garbage
And made a fool of love
I heard the word so loud and clear
Commanded from above
To see it is just blinding light
To speak aloud is treason
Tend to know it now is to be embraced
The tears roll down my face
It's the truth that turns me on

[Chorus]
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me–

[Verse 2]
It's the deal I made without myself
It's the contract signed with rain
I'd accept I've lost control if I only had a brain
But it's not numbers by the hour
On your bed or in the shower
It walks the corridors of power
Opens like a flower
It's the truth that turns me on
[Chorus]
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother (Me on, me on)
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me–

[Chorus]
Mother, father, sister, brother (Truth that turns me on)
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth that turns me on
Mother, father, sister, brother
It's the truth

[Outro]
It's clear, abstract, unknown, a fact
I could get so high
I could cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
It's red, it's yellow, it's white and black
It's as blue and green as a pussycat (Truth that turns me on)
It's in the light, it's in the shade
It's burning bright before it gently fades (With the games we play)
Hold onto the rain, let go of the dove
Face up to the facts and feel the love (Truth that turns me on)
Mother, father, sister, brother (Face up to the facts and feel the love)
It's the truth that turns me on
