Intro:
Why do all my friends now want to be your lovers
your family got bigger when they thought you were rich
And now like maniacs they scratch your back
Even when it doesn't itch
I want to figure it all, I want to figure it all out
I want to save you from, Save you from all that's vain
Save you, from the things that cause us pain
Chorus:
Cause it's an animal city, It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to bite you
It's an animal city, It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to rip you right off
They believe you now have everything you wanted
And once you have become a star you have no right to bitch
But someday when you fail they'll put you on sale
And buy you by the inch
But you're the real deal and real is your middle name
You know sometimes I feel we got to earn
Every breath we take, baby, never mind the rules we break
Chorus:
Cause it's an animal city, It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to bite you
It's an animal city, It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to rip you right off
With you I feel safe
There's nothing to fear from us
Away from the fangs, the fangs of the world
I may be a coward but you are brave
and nothing seems so dangerous
Chorus:
Cause it's an animal city, It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to bite you
It's an animal city, It's a cannibal world
So be obedient, don't argue
Some are ready to rip you right off
