"Human Nature" by Michael Jackson

Looking out, across the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye

Hear her voice, shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out, into the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me tonight

If this town is just an apple
Then let me take a bite


If they say why, why
Tell them that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way?
If they say why, why
Tell them that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way?


Reaching out to touch a stranger
Electric eyes are everywhere

See that girl, she knows I'm watching
She likes the way I stare

If they say, "Why? Why?"
Just tell 'em that is human nature
Why, why does he do it that way?
If they say, "Why? Why?"
Tell 'em that is human nature
Why, why does he do it that way?
I like livin' this way
I like lovin' this way

That way
That way

Looking out
Across the morning
The city's heart begins to beat
Reaching out
I touch her shoulder
I'm dreaming of the street

If they say, "Why? Why?"
Tell 'em that is human nature
Why, why does he do it that way?
If they say, "Why? Why?"
Ooh, tell 'em
Why, why does he do it that way?

If they say, "Why? Why?"

Why, why does he do it that way?
If they say, "Why? Why?"
(Just tell me you like me to be around.)
Ooh, tell 'em
Why, why does he do it that way?

And they say, "Why? Why?"
Ooh, tell 'em
Why, why does he do it that way?

They say, "Why? Why?"
(Just tell me you like me to be around.)
Why, why does he do it that way?
I like livin' this way

The way
The way
