l was Eve in the evening,
though you called me Frank in the afternoon
Eve, the Temptress
Eve, the Mattress
and the Original Woman all through the night
ln the morning both our faces will look the same
Fossilized by the same pain
As you wondered what to call me
you forgot your truth
As you wondered what to call me
l got lost in you
Eve, Eve, Eve
I wanna call you "Atoms"
'cause you split me into atoms, but that's not a name
And in the end you're not my Adam
though my berries were sweet and you picked them all
Whatcha gonna do with them now?
And what am l gonna do without?
Fossilized.
Named twice.
As you wondered what to call me
l got lost in you
as you wondered what to call me
you forgot your truth
Now l wonder what to call you
'cause you're split in two (at least)
Now l wonder who l am,
'cause now l'm just like you
Eve, Eve, Eve
You didn't change your name
You wore a hooded cloak
Frank laughs it off
Frank gets the joke
