He deals a heavy hand
Now I pay the price
'Cause I'm just an animal, animal, I

Dance deft with every blow
Count them with my prizes
'Cause I'm just an animal, animal, I
Just an animal, I

Try to pretend that I
Get what you meant but I'll
Dive like a hawk
If you bait me
Saturn returns and I'm
Trying to learn but I'm
Caged like a bear
At my best

Crash landing back to earth
'Cause I told a lie
But I'm just an animal, animal, I, am just an animal, I

Walk with the crowd and I'm
Laughing the loudest but I
Take my steak raw
Down in one
You think it's a game
Maybe I'll even play
But I'm pacing your fence
For my break to come

No sense surrendering
I won't empathise
'Cause I'm just an animal, animal, I
