Originally released on 12/40: BEASTS - but we only got to play it 3 times live. Plus, it's a song about avoid extinction through hard work.

lyrics

I said I’d love you for the rest of our lives – which won’t be that long unless we get it on,
We face extinction ‘less we make love tonight - I gotta get close to you, so come and share my bamboo
Our keeper’s anxious for us to have sex
She’s checked that I’m spunky, she’s checked all your eggs
I know it’s not easy ‘cuz I look like your ex – but it’s just one night.

It may sound creepy and I know that’s not cool – but time’s running out for your to put out.
It’s dire situation, but I swear it’s the truth - I wouldn’t lie to you just to do the hump-hump with you
I’ll sing you songs I’ll dance with you tender and sweet
We’ll laugh til we’re sick then our black eyes will meet
I’ll try not to scratch you whilst we’re between the sheets
But it’s just one night

The next morning she lays on my chest – our duty done, I think she had fun
Giggly breakfast check the endangered list – and we’re not on there, we high five in the air
Quicker than expected – but that’s no complaint
We over came our obstacles, we’ve broken our chains
And if I’m lucky, we’ll do it again for the rest of our lives.
