Nature Is Ancient / My Snare Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's wet in the middle
With a shell around it
It's called "life"
It goes wherever it wants to
Don't try to predict it
Then you'd offend it
It's meant to surprise

[Chorus]
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
But surprises us all (Ancient)
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
But surprises us all (Ancient)

[Verse 2]
Rescue me
From level-head-ness
Or the unnecessary luxury of being calm

[Chorus]
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
But surprises us all (Ancient)
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
But surprises us all (Ancient)

[Bridge]
She's got dark hairs on her head;
Blonde on her arms;
She sneaks up from behind
Come on, you deserve it!

[Chorus]
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
But surprises us all (Ancient)
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
Surprises us all (Ancient)
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
Surprises us all (Ancient)
Nature is ancient (Ancient)
Surprises us all (Ancient)

[Outro]
Nature is ancient (Ancient, ancient)
So ancient (Ancient, ancient)
Nature is ancient (Ancient, ancient)
Ancient

Genius Annotation

“Nature Is Ancient / My Snare” is a song recorded by Björk for her 1997 album Homogenic. It appears as a bonus track on the Japanese edition of the album, as well as a B-side on the “Bachelorette” single.

On the album, the song is titled “Nature Is Ancient.” However, on the ‘Bachelorette’ single, the title was changed to “My Snare,” which has led to confusion about the title.
