The Animal Song Lyrics
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
Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
I don't have any 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, yeah
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand, yeah, yeah
Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With 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
And I feel it
Cause I just run away in my mind
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, yeah, yeah
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand, yeah, yeah
Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
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
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
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 your hands, yeah, yeah
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand, yeah, yeah
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
It's so confusing
There's so many rules to follow
And I feel it
Cause I just run away in my mind
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 your hands, yeah, yeah
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand, yeah, yeah
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

This song is awesome to dance to! It makes you feel great. It has awesome rhythm and all that other stuff, and great lyrics too. SG rules!
I love the vid for this song, it was totally hilarious, has anyone seen the film "The Other Sister"?
Yes, love it!!!
Yes, love it!!!
I didn't see the movie, nor the clip, but the song just delights me. It's about freedom, freeing yourself from the downs and standards of society. Be yourself, live on, sing and love! (However, the song gets corny after a while, without loosing its light tone)
I first heard this song and I felt this song is made for melol ;9
Being human must be hard, eh? Animals have better lives, ha! This song is great. It's got a happy beat to it. :)
Never saw the video, not my favourite SG song, but hey, I like them all! :) The drums are so catchy :p
Also not my favourite SG song, and I hear it too often, yet I still like it! It's lyrics are corny but positive, it makes me heppeh... it reminds me, I always meant to check out that movie, The Other Sister.
badnitrus basically summed it up. this song is about getting away from normal life and just letting go and having fun.
it's about just running free and not being tied down by all these rules. He wants to just run from people and runs and just be free.
so no one else thought that he was singing about cannibals? haha, i did when i first heard this song. how embarrassing.
LOL omg I'm glad I'm not the only one!!! D: hahaha.
