A holiday wine, I'm after you.
I howl and I whine, I'm after you.
A horny old wino after you
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
A smell and a sound
I smell like I sound
And I'm hungry like Joe Wyatt.
And I'm hungry like the wolf.
And talk to the ground
In touch with the ground
Center the sound, I'm lost and I'm found.
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found.
Center the sound, I'm lost and unfound.
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found.
Darken the city night is a wine
Even the subway earth is so fine
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Whene'er you want give me your sign
And hear my breathing even closer than hind
Dark in the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is afire
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Women, you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Deep in the subway Earth is so fine
Steam in the subway Earth is afire
Disco and rhyme
Discord and rhyme
Dog in the city
Dark in the city
Duck in the city
Dark in the city
Enough is alive; juice is like wine.
My mouth is alive with juices like wine.
Herpes of fire
Earth is afire
Hide like Germans and your skin is so tight
High blood drumming on your skin it's so tight
Hide my drummer and your skin is so tied
High blood drumming on your skin it's so tight
Hungry like the wall
Hungry like the wolf
Hunting like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
I don't know why I'm after you.
I howl and I whine, I'm after you.
I owned a hunt town after you
I'm on a hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound
I'm lost and I'm found.
Scent and a sound
I'm lost and I'm found.
I smell like a clown.
I smell like I sound.
I smell like a sound
I smell like I sound
I smell like a sow
I smell like I sound
I will uh blind you by the moonlight sign.
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side.
I'll be a cornyard by the moonlit sign
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
I'll have a hot time after you
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
I'll let the wine master you.
I howl and I whine, I'm after you.
I'm Johnny Hunt, I'm after you.
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you.
I'm in the hot tub after you.
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you.
I'm not German and you're skin it's so fine.
High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight.
I'm not turning on your skin, it's so tight.
High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight.
I'm on the hunt-down after you.
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you.
I'm on the wine, I'm after you.
I howl and I whine, I'm after you.
I'm touching the clown.
In touch with the ground
In touch with the Clown
In touch with the ground
In touch with the Crown
In touch with the ground
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Sentient sound,
I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strung on the line,
it's disco and rhyme
Alcohol wine I'm after you
Methyl's alive,
all runny inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound,
I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on the line
it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive
all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf
It's on channel 9, like disco and wine
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
Juice is a wine
...with juices like wine.
Juice is like wine.
...with juices like wine.
Moth is a lie
Fruit juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf.
Mouth is alive
With juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf.
Mouse is alive with juices like wine
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
Mustardy clown
I'm lost and I'm found.
Nazis alive!
Boots just like wine.
Mouth is alive
With juices like wine.
Nazis alive
With juices like wine
My mouth is alive
With juices like wine
Nothing's alive, my juice is like wine.
Mouth is alive with juices like wine.
Seen in the subway:
Earth, Wind and Fire.
Steam in the subway
Earth is afire.
Smell like a sound
Just am your hound
And I'm hungry like a bull.
I smell like I sound,
I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf.
Smell like a sound
Smell like I sound
Smell like you sound, I'm lost and I'm found.
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found.
Stand on the line, in disco and rhyme
I'm on the hunt-down after you
Mouse is alive with juices like wine.
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine.
Steam in the subway, up is the file.
Steam in the subway, Earth is afire.
Straddle the line,
it's disco and wine
Straddle the line
it's discord and rhyme
Straddle the line
Disco and rind
Hummin' a hung time hat to you
But that's a lie
Kisses, like, why?
Strut on a line
It's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Mouth is alive
with juices like wine
Straight down the line
Disco and wine
I'm on the huntdown after you.
Strut on a line
Discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you.
Stuck to the sound, I'm lost in the ground.
or
Sunk in the sound, I'm lost in a crowd.
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found.
Stuffed in the forest too close to hide
Stalked in the forest too close to hide
The louse is alive,
with juices like mine
Mouth is alive,
with juices like wine
The mouse is alive, and gypsies like wine
Mouth is alive all running inside
Warren you want me, give me a sign
Woman you want me, give me a sign
Warren joined Duran Duran LONG after Hungry Like the Wolf was a hit.
Well then you'll want me? Give me a sign!
Woman you want me, give me a sign
Butt in the ground, I break from the crowd
Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I smell like a hound in touch with the ground.
Smell like I sound I'm lost in a crowd.
I smell like asshole
I smell like I sound
I'm lost and I'm found
I'm lost in a crowd
Both are correct, at different places in the song.
I'm lost in a draft
I'm lost in a crowd
I'm lost in a drought
I'm lost in a crowd
I'm lost out of bounds
I'm lost and I'm found
Strut on a line, it's disco and wine
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
Well when you want me, give me a sigh
Woman you want me, give me a sign
