|
The beast in me |
|
Is caged by frail and fragile bars |
|
Restless by day |
|
And by night rants and rages at the stars |
|
God help the beast in me |
|
|
|
The beast in me |
|
Has had to learn to live with pain |
|
And how to shelter from the rain |
|
And in the twinkling of an eye |
|
Might have to be restrained |
|
God help the beast in me |
|
|
|
Sometimes it tries to kid me |
|
That it's just a teddy bear |
|
And even somehow manage to vanish in the air |
|
And that is when I must beware |
|
Of the beast in me that everybody knows |
|
They've seen him out dressed in my clothes |
|
Patently unclear |
|
If it's New York or New Year |
|
God help the beast in me |
|
|
|
The beast in me |
