Wild Thing

Two white horses in the Idaho rain
Windshield wipers in my reflection
Two dead cats on the side of the road
Alone together, in stormy weather

One hawk’s perched on a burnt down fence
Like sch a Wild, Wild Thing
To be alone is to know you’re alive
Like a Wild, Wild thing

I fell in love with an amsterdam girl
Her clay eyes were painted with a marble swirl
Looking at them, the world would unfurl
Into stormy weahter, alone together

As I watched her tip toe cross a silent room
Like such a Wild, Wild Thing
To be alone is to know you’re alive
Like a Wild, Wild thing

Black oil in a souther gulf
My baby’s eyes are like the bakc of a wolf
I recommend I get to know myself
And the world at large, who’s in charge

I’m not a monster if I’m chasing my dreams
Like such a Wild, Wild Thing
To be alone is to know you’re alive
Like a Wild, Wild thing

Smoking cigarettes, pumping gasoline
Like such a Wild, Wild Thing
To be alone is to know you’re alive
Like a Wild, Wild thing
