Noah And The Whale - Wild Thing |
|
|
|
Time can make more rubble out of dreams than anything |
|
In a quiet neighborhood where she's living without wings |
|
There's eyes behind the curtains and there's ears below the floor |
|
Cracks inside the ceiling and there's shadows at the door |
|
|
|
The boredom stirs a rage inside her soul |
|
A rage that reaches out and takes control |
|
Baby she's a wild thing |
|
|
|
Nine days out alone |
|
Sleep in the dirt |
|
She walks back into town |
|
With blood stains on her shirt |
|
Everyone has questions |
|
But no one wants to know |
|
How far the anger in someone |
|
Can really make them go |
|
|
|
Her tangled hair and mud stains on her knees |
|
Bruised ribs and rips on the side of her jeans |
|
Baby she's a wild thing |
|
|
|
Well I used to be a citizen in this town |
|
'Til my teeth turned gray and my hair fell out |
|
All the civil decent people, they don't want to know |
|
But a girl looking for trouble said she'd give me a go |
|
|
|
While everybody's sleeping in this town this night |
|
From the crooked clock tower to the borderline |
|
And night star static in the winter breeze |
|
She's lying in the moonlight with her hands between my knees |
|
|
|
She says it's all right |
|
Well, it's all right by me |
|
|
|
Baby she's a wild thing |
