This guy's a painter and he's real suave He's got a waistcoat on and he just got thirty thou He mixed twenty shades of red to paint that one red stripe And he looks at me like I can't breathe the air around his life
What do I know? I'm an animal Ain't that what you said I'm an animal? I don't know any better 'cause I'm an animal I either scream in ecstacy or I wannna die
But I don't know about your paint It all looks the same to me But what do I know I'm a wild beast can't you see?
The man who says he knows about dreams is asking me to talk to him or so it seems I start to tell and then he puts his finger on my lips 'We have to move on,' he says, 'enough about your dreams. I'm the expert and you're the patient,' and he pulls me like a zip But I don't like it when they pretend And I don't like his phoney compliments He says he knows and what do I know I'm either peaceful or I feel like breaking a wall
What do I know? I'm an animal Ain't that what you said I'm an animal? I don't know any better 'cause I'm an animal I either scream in ecstasy or I wannna die
But I don't believe you care one little gram about anyone's dreams but just your little lines You're a charlatan Why do you lie? You lie you lie And now you have you've made mad and I can't control the way I feel I can't control the way I feel Can't control the way I feel I can't control the way I feel I can't control the way I feel
You see these hands? They're just a disguise for the big big paws I hide inside My smooth skin hides the softness of fur And I'm gonna spend my time playing round with your blood
'Cause I'm an animal Ain't that what you said I'm an animal And I don't know any better I don't know no thank you I don't know no please I'm an animal and I don't want your peace No no no thank you I can't control the way I feel No no no thank you I can't control the way I feel No no no thank you I can't control the way I feel No no no thank you I can't control the way I feel
