Animal

Animal
Words and Music by Maddy Rodriguez

Everybody says that I’m a good girl
But something’ bout you
Makes my toes begin to curl
Baby I’m wanting things I never knew I’d want

We gotta be at least twenty feet apart
You’re over there,
I’m here with a beating heart
Faster than a cheetah running across Africa

Duh-da-dee-dum-dee-doooo
Do you see exactly what you’re
Duh-da-dee-dum-dee-dooop-in to me?
Baby


You won’t find me basking in the light
I’ll be waiting in the jungle tonight
With all the wild ones playin’ in the dark
Underneath the stars, baby I’m an animal

Usually I feel like I’m camouflaged
Invisible, except when our eyes lock
Gimme that stare of yours
And I think I’m someone else

I’m unafraid, I’m ready to rumble
Could even say, tonight I’m a rebel
Won’t you come be with me?
‘Cause I can’t contain myself

Duh-da-dee-dum-dee-doooo
Do you hear me callin out for
Yo-ee-yah-ee-youuu to hunt me down?
Right now

You won’t find me basking in the light
I’ll be waiting in the jungle tonight
With all the wild ones playin’ in the dark
Underneath the stars, baby I’m an animal

If you want me, listen for my call
Life is for livin', don't you wanna live it all?
Let's go insane, don't wanna play it safe
Tonight all I can say, is baby I'm an animal

(Guitar Solo)


You won’t find me basking in the light
I’ll be waiting in the jungle tonight
With all the wild ones playin’ in the dark
Underneath the stars, baby I’m an animal

If you want me, listen for my call
Life is for livin', don't you wanna live it all?
Let's go insane, don't wanna play it safe
Tonight all I can say, is baby I'm an animal

Yeay, yeay, yeay, yeay, yeay
Yeay, yeay, yeay, yeay, yeay
Yeay, yeay, yeay, yeay, yeay
Yeay, yeay!
