Noah & The Whale - Wild Thing lyrics

Time can make more rubble out of dreams than anything In a quiet neighborhood where she's living without wings There's eyes behind the curtains and there's ears below the floor Cracks inside the ceiling and there's shadows at the door The boredom stirs a rage inside her soul A rage that reaches out and takes control Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Nine days out alone Sleep in the dirt She walks back into town With blood stains on her shirt Everyone has questions But no one wants to know How far the anger in someone Can really make them go Her tangled hair and mud stains on her knees Bruised ribs and rips on the side of her jeans Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Well I used to be a citizen in this town 'Til my teeth turned gray and my hair fell out All the civil decent people, they don't want to know But a girl looking for trouble said she'd give me a go While everybody's sleeping in this town this night From the crooked clock tower to the borderline And night star static in the winter breeze She's lying in the moonlight with her hands between my knees She says it's all right Well, it's all right by me Well, it's all right by me Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing Baby she's a wild thing
