The Animal Song
Savage Garden

When superstars and cannonballs are running 
through your head 
Television freak show cops and robbers everywhere 

Subway makes me nervous people pushing me too 
far 
Got to break away so take my hand now because 
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? 

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 
But I don't feel it because 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? 

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
