A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town 
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid 
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame 
I burn for you 

I gotta feel it in my blood whoa oh 
I need your touch don't need your love whoa oh 

And I want and I need 
And I lust animal 
And I want and I need 
And I lust animal 

Cry wolf, given mouth to mouth 
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour 
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust 
And like the drivin' rain, yeah, like the restless rust 
I never sleep 

[Repeat Bridge]

[Repeat Chorus]

Huh! 
Ah! 
Cry wolf, baby cry tough 
Gonna hunt you like an, an, an, an, an, animal 
Gonna take your love 'n' run 

[guitar solo] 

[Repeat Bridge]

[Repeat Chorus]

And I want and I need 
And I lust animal 
Take me, ame me 
Make me your animal 
Show me stroke me 
Let me be your animal 
I want, ooh yeah, animal
				

You got the look of a howlin' wolf
I like it
The kind of eyes that could start a fire
Yes, I like it
A streetwise dynamo, I switch you on
And I watch you go
A thrill to touch, you're so hot
I'm coming for you ready or not

(BRIDGE:)
I'm gettin' ready -
Living on the edge of a dream
I'm gettin' ready -
Oh, switch on your lovin' machine

(CHORUS:)
Tear it down
There's got to be a better way
Tear it down
I can't wait another day
Tear it down
There's got to be a better way
Tear it down
If only you could stay
All night long

I'm on fire, you're all ice
Once too much is twice as nice
Get tough, fools luck
One bite and I'm hooked
A black cat with a silver tongue
A quick lick and you're gone
One kiss, it hots up
Too close ain't close enough

(repeat BRIDGE & CHORUS)
