the democracy of small things

Lyrics

i spoke to all my molecules, and they were divided, on if you were invited, "love undecided", i told them, "now's the time, you've got to make your choice, no more can avoid, lift up one solid voice", they told me, "we just can't say yet, there's a lot of yesses, but also plenty no's, and we work by consensus!", i said, "pull in the stragglers. try to wear down their defenses, 'cause it's getting humiliating, out here on the fence", i spoke to all my molecules, "hey guys, did you see those eyes?!", "i know i felt you all there with me, swell in that one kiss, think of all the waves of holding back, we're going to miss. what's the problem, why've we held back for so long?", ready to move on?
