The Animal Song

Savage Garden

Lyrics

When superstars and cannonballs
are running through your head
A 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, 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
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

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
The wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

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

I want to live
I want to live

I want to live like animals
I want to live like animals
