Curiosity

Little girl with your head held high
You got a lot to say,
A lot to try.
Won't you try some with me?
I may look under the weather,
But the doctors say
I'm getting better.
They say don't take candy from me.

You say no,
But we both know
You'll come running to me.
Curiosity.

They teach you not to talk to strangers
But you're safe with me,
You're not in danger.
I'm as gentile as a lamb.
It'll just be our little secret,
Tucked away
Where no one can reach it,
Locked inside your pretty head.

You say no,
But we both know
You'll come running to me.
Curiosity.

No harm in trying what's tempting.
Your curiosity.
Find out what alleviates the tension.
Your curiosity.
See the soldier standing at attention.
Your curiosity.
I'm gonna find a way to shake up
Your curiosity.
Curiosity.
