Savage Garden

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

Chorus:
'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

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

Chorus

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

Chorus (repeat to fade)
