Islands - If Lyrics

If the clothes make the man
then the moths make the holes
And it shows, yes it shows
By the shape the hole grows

If early man really did mate with Neanderthal then
Modern man is a mix of beastial sex

If you ain't sweet to me, I'll desert you in a heartbeat
If you don't savor me, I'll salt you make you savory

If the boy keeps hitting his head against the dash of the car
Will the horsefly leave his ear? Will the blood make it hard?

If you ain't sweet to me, I'll desert you in a heartbeat
If you don't savor me, I'll salt you make you savory

If sequencing genes brings them back to breed
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, ah, ah, ah
Will we get along with them this time?

If you ain't sweet to me, I'll desert you in a heartbeat
If you don't savor me, I'll salt you make you savory

When the sky finally falls, if you're holding me
I can die finally knowing it ends peacefully?
