If you ever get close to a human And human behavior Be ready, be ready to get confused There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic To human behavior But yet so, yet so irresistible And there's no map They're terribly moody And human behavior Then all of a sudden turn happy But, oh, to get involved in the exchange Of human emotions Is ever so, ever so satisfying Oh oh, and there's no map Human behavior, human Human, human behavior, human Human, human behavior, human Human behavior, human And there's no map And the compass Wouldn't help at all Human behavior, human, human Human behavior, human Human behavior, human Human behavior There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic Human, human Human behavior Human There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic Human, human, human, human
