Animals

[Verse 1]

Lie down and close your eyes

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey

You may be in for a little surprise

Hey now, hey now, hey now

[Verse 2]

[???]

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey

Something wild with a mind of its own

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now

[Verse 1]

Scamper about

Like [?] little beasts

Looking for a house

Or maybe just a hole 'til its safe to come out

Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Verse 2]

Scamper all around

Way up in a tree

Or far beneath the ground

Where they’ll never catch a predator or prey

Baby baby don’t cry

[Verse 3]

It’s part of the scheme

Nature always wins

It isn’t what it seems

But we all have our days when nothing goes right

Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Verse 4]

Scamper through the night

Our little ears alert

I haven’t seen the light

Ooh, it doesn’t even hurt if we have a little fun

Baby baby don’t cry

Baby baby don’t cry

[Chorus]

There’s animals under my skin

There’s animals itching within

There’s animals waiting to get out

There's animals

You try and stop and they say

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey

[Verse 5]

Wake up, they’re coming alive

We’re changing so fast

They don’t want to be left behind

Can’t stop

Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Verse 6]

Scamper on the sidewalk

The city’s meant for her

We don’t need clothes

Soon we’ll have our own fur

So what's so wrong?

Baby, baby, don't cry

[Verse 7]

Time to go

And join up with the pack

It’s not worth a fight

It’s too late for turning back

No regrets

Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Chorus]

There’s animals under my skin

There’s animals under my skin, okay!

[Guitar Solo]

[Interlude]

Why don’t they leave me alone?

They’re hurting me now

It’s just a matter of time

I’m multiplying, I’m multiplying

The whole thing’s coming undone

We’re on the run

Get back, come get with the pack

Of animals, the animals

[Outro]

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals under my skin

There's animals scampering about

There's animals waiting to get out
