The Calling

Anaïs Mitchell

[Intro]
I am
I am
I am calling
I am calling you out
I am
I am calling
I am calling you
I am calling you out
I am
I am calling
I am calling you
I am calling you out
I am
I am calling
I am calling you
I am calling you
I am calling you out

[Verse 1]
I saw you first of all
Leaning into the wall through the crowd
And it was a circus of purposeful glances
And drunken advances and laughing out loud
And hey, haven't I seen this obscenery?
Don't I abuse all the very same lines?
You caught my attention, hey, what's your extension?
I'm thinking we should play music some time
But I am calling you out of the hustle
Calling you back to the muscle and blood
'Cause I want you free when you come to me
And I want you naked

[Verse 2]
'Cause I know you, baby, you think women are crazy
You talk them up and down
You like them to look and to touch but not feel too much
You can't take all the talking about it
Oh, less talk about this when you kiss me
Just let the justice of kissing be done
I don't want the taste of you laced with the sweet lies
That you keep at the tip of your tongue
That's why I'm calling you out of the hustle
Calling you back to the muscle and blood
Start with your shoes if you want to
Come on and get naked

[Verse 3]
'Cause hey, hey, how long do I get a body?
How long do I get the use of a brain?
I can't afford any less than nakedness
Can't afford to feel any more shame
So tell me what is your weekliest secret?
Show yours to me and I'll show mine to you
We'll have a few mavering moments of radical romance
And see if we can't serve the truth
That's why I'm calling you out of the hustle
Calling you back to the muscle and blood
I'm calling you out of the hustle
Calling you back to the muscle and blood
I'm calling you out of the hustle
Calling you back to the muscle and blood
Let's not be afraid of what we're made of
Come on and get naked
