The Fundamental Things Lyrics - Bonnie Raitt

1 Let's run naked through these city streets

2 We're all captives of captivity

3 Let's wear madness like a crucifix

4 Let's tattoo Bible quotes across both our hips

5 Let's get back to the fundamental things

6 Let's get back to the elements of style

7 Let's get back to simple skin on skin

8 Let's get back to the fundamental things

9 Let's dance barefoot over broken glass

10 Slither like a snake does through the wet, cold grass

11 Howl and tremble in a sleepless grind

12 Let's do the braindrain, leave it all behind

13 Let's get back to the fundamental things

14 Let's get back to the elements of style

15 Let's get back to simple skin on skin

16 Let's get back to the fundamental things

17 You can sit in your room and worry

18 You can contemplate the end

19 Or let your house burn down behind you

20 Run bare-ass through the streets again

21 You can hide out on your rooftop

22 Wishing you had never been

23 Or go down to Hal's bar and grill

24 Find your innocence again

25 Let's get back to the fundamental things

26 Let's get back to the elements of style

27 Let's get back to simple skin on skin

28 Let's get back to the fundamental things
