Animal

You wish she loves you.
You've changed from behavior;
You take manners of yuppies.
You just talk about
Your first-class cruises, your cruises.
 
You want her esteem;
You expose your best perusals.
You've seen hundreds of movies,
Explain the provenance
Of tapestries on the wall, on the wall.
 
But, there's an hour will sound ...the signal.
 
You'd want her to dream.
You always keep the pinky up
In talking about the jet lags,
Of white beaches
At the other end of Earth, end of Earth.
 
(or) Still; why not Venice,
When the fountains light up
Of underwater reflections,
We even could dance
On the edge of lagoons, of lagoons.
 
But, there's an hour will sound ...the signal;
A moment when you'll feel yourself
Animal, animal, animal,
Animal, animal.
 
[Vocal bridge opening:] The one who waits under the flood,
Who sleeps against the door.
The one who shouts, who screams
Until you come out,
Who loves you in the car,
Who runs as soon as you call,
Who cries, who cries, who cries:
"My Lord, how women are divine!"
"My Lord, my Lord, my Lord,
My Lord, how women are ..." [Vocal bridge end - Instrumental bridge opening:]
 
You'd want her to dance,
Flowers everywhere on the scene,
And in the great silence,
Feel yourself able to walk on the sea,
On the sea.
 
You want her esteem;
You expose your best perusals,
Forgettin' less glorious
As those girls lying flat on your walls,
On your walls.
 
But, there's an hour will sound ...the signal.
A moment when you'll feel yourself ...
Animal, animal, animal,
Animal, animal.
Animal,
 
The signal,
The signal,
Animal ...
