THE ANIMAL SONG

THE ANIMAL SONG

- SAVAGE GARDEN

When superstars and cannonballs are running through your head

the television freak show cops and robbers everywhere

Subway makes me nervous, people pushing me too far

I've got to break away

So take my hand now

 

Cause I want to live like animals

Careless and free like animals

I want to live

I want to run through the jungle

the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

 

I've been having difficulties keeping to myself

Feelings and emotions better left up on the shelf

Animals and children tell the truth, they never lie

Which one is more human

There's a thought, now you decide

 

Compassion in the jungle

Compassion in your hands

Would you like to make a run for it

Would you like to take my hand

 

Cause I want to live like animals

Careless and free like animals

I want to live

I want to run through the jungle

the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

 

Sometimes this life can get you down

It's so confusing

There's so many rules to follow

And I feel it

'Cause I just run away in my mind

 

When Superstars and cannonballs are running through your head

Television freak show cops and robbers everywhere

Animals and children tell the truth, they never lie

Which one is more human

There's a thought, now you decide

 

Compassion in the jungle

Compassion in your hands

Would you like to make a run for it

Would you like to take my hand

 

Cause I want to live like animals

Careless and free like animals

I want to live

I want to run through the jungle

With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet (repeat X2)
