"Let's Get Naked" Lyrics

Adam wasn't full of knowledge.
Adam was ashamed.
Adam only knew about
that one mistake he made

And the worst mistake ever
was to give these leaves to us
I mean, our own doubts and fears
would be perfectly enough

but no, we've got to hide them
and ignore what's at the roots
we're told to love our fig leaves
more than we love the truth

But I'm here to tell you Adam
I'm shedding all your shame
I'm throwing off this clothing
and I'm dancing in the rain.

I've got a lot to lose by speaking truth but even more to gain.

So let's get naked
let your shame fall away
like shedding blankets
let your fear and your identity
hang around your ankles
then let's run around
show the world the stuff we've found
the beauty we've kept hidden
underneath these
pounds and pounds
of extra clothing.
I'm shedding my self-loathing
and replacing it with trust.
I'm only here to love.
I'm through with thinking anyone's the judge.

And when we disrobe
we let the light shine in
we strip off the stuff that was left
from the lining
I'm not signing autographs
because I don't even have a name.
I left it at the party in a pile with all my pain
And I'm trained to cover up
I'm trained to hide my shame
I'm trained in the fine art
of trying to stay sane

In a world where judgment's passed
where people are condemned
we cover up our flaws long before
we work on them.

But I'm loving all my blemishes
with sentimental tenderness
I'm writing down these sentences
defenseless.

And let's get naked
let your shame fall away
like shedding blankets
let your fear and your identity
hang around your ankles
then let's run around
show the world the stuff we've found
the beauty we've kept hidden
underneath these
pounds and pounds
of extra clothing.
I'm shedding my self-loathing
and replacing it with trust.
I'm only here to love.
I'm through with thinking anyone's the judge.

  • These commenters make me sad. Attacking others and making no effort to understand a bit of symbolism is definitely not Quaker IMO.

  • Jon Watts is an embarassment to Quakerism! I certainly don't know what he was thinking, when posting a video such as this. It is abhorrent to conventional Quakerism, and certainly has nothing to do with my personal beliefs regarding Quakerism. I would also maintain that George Fox is rolling over in his grave, at the response to this spectacle.

  • Quakerism meets the hippie movement!?!?!?

    NO!!! This is NOT what George Fox taught!! Nor any other Quaker!

    MODESTY is still expected. Fox taught that even stain glass was distracting to worship of G-d.

    The music was not directed in praise to G-d, but man's iniquity! This is a sick perversion of any Christianity. The message they tried to promote was swallowed in a display of VANITY!

    The book of Genesis I thought was self explanatory! Any Quaker who watches this should be extremely disappointed.

  • Some people just can't read between the lines.

    I'm sure not a Quaker, but I can see the genius in living life right.

  • Guys, I love this. Years ago I used to live in a resort area that had a lot of "clothing optional" places. I had no trouble letting my belly sag and my vast amount of back hair be free, just being social. I did not realise the freedom I had as a Quaker. I never felt like I was doing a "sin" as someone suggested. Maybe its why I see so eye to eye with so many nudists and like minded. Maybe this is why I get along with the French? Love the idea. I will bring it up at the Kalamazoo meeting. Lol.

  • I watched this high.

  • hey I've walked through those branch hut things. but I had clothes on

  • The spirit is good. I get the message. They were not able to get totally naked on a youtube video because they would have upset devils in the souls of hating humans.

  • This is one reason why were awesome xD

  • Is this just another gimmick to promote someone's religious agenda?
