Del LP homónimo (Primitive de 1984), esta canción nos muestra la vertiente ochentera de Neil, con sus constantes referencias al amor, a las relaciones personales y a la circunstancia cotidiana de vivir la vida. La letra en inglés está enseguida:
Primitive (1984)
Primitive
Thats how I feel when I look in your eyes
I feel primitive
Uncivilized
Like something from out of the heart of the jungle
Uncivilized
Foolish minds
Believing that passion is somehow a rational thing at all
That's when you take that fall
I'm living my life in such a primitive way
I was doing alright before you came
And said 'okay'
You said Okay, it's okay"
Tentative
Theres nothing about you that's even the slightest bit
Tentative
But you remain
Still your own woman and yet, in a way, representative
Of woman kind
Believing the notion that love and devotion will rise again
Why can't we just be friends?
I'm living my life in such a primitive way
I was doing just alright before you came
And said 'okay'
'It's okay', Its okay'
Just look at me
Feel like a river of quivering jelly, no man at all
'cause no man would take that fall
I'm living my life in such a primitive way
I was doing alright before you came
I'm living my life in a primitive way
I was doing alright before you came
I'm living my life in a primitive way
I was doing just fine before you came
