Pete Townshend
I Am an Animal
[Intro]
I was always here in the silence
But I was never under your eye
Gather up your love in some wiseness
Every memory shall always survive
And you will see me
[Verse 1]
I am an animal
My teeth are sharp and my mouth is full
And the passion is so strong when I'm alone
Loneliness will change me
[Verse 2]
I am a vegetable
I get my body badly pulled
And I'm rooted to the spot
Nothing will rearrange me
[Chorus]
I'm looking back and I can't see the past
Anymore, so hazy
I'm on a track and I'm travelling so fast
Oh, for sure I'm crazy
[Verse 3]
I am a human being
And I don't believe all the things I'm seeing
I've got nowhere to hide anymore
I'm losing my way
[Verse 4]
I am an angel
I booked in here, I came straight from hell
And I don't know how to lie anymore
I'm boozing to pray
[Chorus]
I'm looking back and I can't see the past
Anymore, so hazy
I'm on a track and I'm travelling so fast
Oh, for sure I'm crazy
[Bridge]
I was always here in the silence
But I was never under your eye
Gather up your love in some wiseness
Every memory shall always survive
And you will see me
[Verse 5]
I will be immersed
Queen of the fucking universe
And I don't know what I have anymore
Anymore than you do
[Verse 6]
I am a nothing king
Been right around on a golden ring
And I don't know where you are anymore
I've got no clue
[Chorus]
I'm looking back and I can't see the past
Anymore, so hazy
I'm on a track and I'm travelling so fast
Oh, for sure I'm crazy
[Outro]
I am an animal
