The Animal Song


When superstars and cannonballs
Are running through your head
And 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
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
(Ah ah ah, oh)
(Ah ah ah, oh)

I don't have any
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, yeah
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand, yeah

'Cause I want to live (like animals)
Careless and free (like animals)
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With 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 

(Ah ah ah, oh)
(Ah ah ah, oh)

Superstars and cannonballs
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, yeah
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand, yeah

'Cause I want to live (like animals)
Careless and free (like animals)
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

(Like animals)
Careless and free (like animals)
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
(Ah ah ah, oh)

(Like animals)
Careless and free (like animals)
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

(Like animals)
Careless and free (like animals)
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

(Like animals)
Careless and free (like animals)
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
