《Human Nature》出自1982年的《Thriller》专辑。《Human Nature》在1983年7月3日作为专辑的第五部歌曲发行，但在英国没有同时公布。歌曲由托托乐队成员创作，制作人昆西琼斯希望他们能够被包含在《Thriller》中。琼斯不喜欢托托乐队的歌曲，但享受“在磁带的人类自然的表演”。后来又修改了歌词。

Human Nature

Michael Jackson

Looking out

Across the nighttime

The city winks a sleepless eye

Hear her voice

Shake my window

Sweet seducing sighs

Get me out

Into the nighttime

Four walls won't hold me tonight

If this town

Is just an apple

Then let me take a bite

If they say --

Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way

If they say --

Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature

Why, why does he do me that way

Reaching out

To touch a stranger

Electric eyes are ev'rywhere

See that girl

She knows I'm watching

She likes the way I stare

If they say --

Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way

If they say --

Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature

Why, why does he do me that way

I like lovin' this way

I like lovin' this way

Looking out

Across the morning

Where the city's heart begins to beat

Reaching out

I touch her shoulder

I'm dreaming of the street

If they say --

Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way

If they say --

Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature

Why, why does he do me that way
