Lyrics

Sometimes I don't even move a muscle
Baby, while you lie awake all night
I think I've got nine lives in these corpuscles
Girl, you know sometimes I don't think right
I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it's nothing at all
A hungry wolf-an angry child or
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
It's not as if we could think that things was one way
Or they would all just be that way right now
When I was a kid I thought that some day
I could tame this lion heart some way, somehow
Now I'm hungry for the love
That doesn't know what it's thinking of
Searching for the meek and mild like
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
There's a hole where the wind blows through
And some curtains too
But I can't hide a thing from you
You know where I'm comin' from
Well I tried gettin' there under my own steam
But my very last chance was shot
Now you're ridin' me down like a submarine
I can feel you in my veins, runnin' hot
I went out and stole a new pair of shoes
Some pocket money and a place to go
Now we gotta get up and scream at the top of our lungs
Like it was gonna die if we didn't make it so
I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it's nothing at all
A hungry wolf, an angry child or
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
