Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I'm just a part of everything
I stand on two legs and I learn to sing
It's not what was said
It's not what I heard
I walk with my dog and I whistle with the bird

[Refrain]
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything

[Verse 2]
So we think we really live apart
Because weve got two legs, a brain, and a heart
We all belong to everything
To the octopus' suckers and the buzzards wing
To the elephants trunk and buzzing bees sting

[Refrain]
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
I'm just a part of everything

[Chorus]
i/o, i/o
Coming out, I'm going in
i/o, i/o
I'm just a part of everything

[Verse 3]
I learn like a baby, I learn like a seed
Spread out my tubers wherever I need
I find any way to attach and connect
And I run like water, no cause or effect

[Refrain]
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything

[Verse 4]
When the panting is over and the warmth has run out
Love will be flowing, I have no doubt
With the vehicle in neutral and the ground to be faced
Ill be all laid to rest in my proper place
Into the roots of an old oak tree
Where life can move freely in and out of me

[Refrain]
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything

[Chorus]
i/o, i/o
Coming out, I'm going in
i/o, i/o
I'm just a part of everything
[Chorus]
i/o, i/o
Coming out, I'm going in
i/o, i/o
I'm just a part of everything
