Mike Mills (R.E.M.) - Hyena lyrics

[Verse 1] Night time fell at the opening In the final act of the beginning of time Hyena, take your role, the stage is set The town is safe again tonight [Chorus] Hyena (i see the day ahead) Hyena (and all that i've cried through) Hyena (god knows you're doing that, don't you) [Verse 2] Hyena, sister, look to your hand Man, you serve communal interest She'll tell you when and where and how and why you'd hurt A beautiful young lady [Chorus] [Verse 3] The only thing to fear is fearlessness The bigger the weapon, the greater the fear Hyena is amba**ador to here Nighttime fell like the closing Meager pay, but recognition Hyena crawls on his belly out The town is safe again tonight [Outro] Hyena (i see the changes, man) Hyena (going on across the way) Hyena (i see my road ahead) Hyena (don't know if i should stay) Hyena (i see you holding him) Hyena (and all that i've cried through) Hyena (god knows you're doing that, don't you)
