'Cause I want to live like cannibals
Careless and free like cannibals.
'Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals.
'Cause I want to live like cannonballs
Careless and free like cannonballs.
'Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals.
I want to live night of the cannon balls, careless and free.
I want to live like animals, careless and free.
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the scent of my feet
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
When superstars and cannonballs are running through your head
And television freak show coke and rubbers everywhere.
When superstars and cannonballs are running through your head
And television freak show cops and robbers everywhere.
From 'The Other Sister' soundtrack.
And television freak show cops and rubbers everywhere.
And television freak show cops and robbers everywhere
Cause I want to live like an animal
Hairless and free like an animal
I want to live,
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my head and the sons at my feet
Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live,
I want to run through the jungle
With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet
Cause I want to live like cannonballs
Careless and free like cannonballs
or
Cause I want to live like cannibles
Careless and free like cannibles
or
Cause I want to live like cannibles
Careless and free like cannibles
Cause I want to live like animals
careless and free like animals
Come crashin' in the jungle
Come crashin' in your head
Compassion in the jungle
Compassion in your hands
Come pash me in the jungle
Come pash me in your head.
Compassion in the jungle
Compassion in your hands.
Compassion in the jungle, compassion in New York, yeah
Compassion in the jungle, compassion in your hands
Compassion in the ocean
Compassion in your hands
