Animalize

Early morning, as she wakes from her sleep
9 to 5 is the day that she'll keep
Ties her hair up and her blouse buttoned tight
Gets her work done as she waits for the night...

All the people, tell me what would they say
If they knew her, how she hides it away
Locked inside, there's the start of a flame
And the feelings that she never will tame

Ooh as she's walking around like a mystery
Ooh there's a woman that nobody sees livin' inside

Chorus:
Thrills in the night, far from the light, passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days, no on really knows her

In the evening when she takes to the street
She goes hunting with a body in heat
And desires she's kept hidden inside make her tingle
And she knows why she lies

Ooh as she's walking around like a mystery
Ooh there's a woman that nobody sees living inside

chorus repeats 2x

See the stranger that she's pushing away
As she dresses for the start of a day
And desires she's kept hidden inside make her tingle
Yeah she knows why she lies

chorus repeats out

Hey, with a sleight of hand and then a word of mouth
She's a cat been caged too long and now she's breakin' out
Well, get it straight, you better cross your heart
'Cause sparks are gonna fly, let me tell you what it's all about

Better run for cover, babe, she's gonna make her move
You know she could, she's a get rich bitch
You better get her while the gettin's good

She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned

But she's murder in high-heels

She ain't the girl next door worth waitin' for
Well you're playin' with the fire, a pool of sweat's lyin' on the floor
She'll bring you to your knees, and when you're laid to rest
She's gonna give you something, she's gonna get it off her chest
(Yeah yeah yeah)

She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned - here she comes

he's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned

But she's murder in high heels

What goes on behind closed doors, private wounds, open sores
You're your own worst enemy and cheap thrills bring you to your knees
It's thumbs down for someone you know, and it's easy come and easy go

Chorus:
Burn your bridges, take what you can get
Go for the throat 'cause you paid your debt
Livin' well is the best revenge, so give 'em hell

While the city sleeps - it's all there in black and white
While the city sleeps - through the eye of the needle, gotta thread your life
While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps

It's a hit or miss, an eye for an eye, live for today, and don't ask why
For better or worse, you bought and sold
They love you while you're hot and leave you when you're cold

chorus

While the city sleeps - yeah, better run for your life
Take your troubles to the night
While the city sleeps - yeah, beggars, thieves and losers, there's no relief
While the city sleeps - there's no relief, while the city sleeps
While the city sleeps - yeah

chorus

While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps
While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps
While the city sleeps - yeah, there's no relief
While the city sleeps

My eggs in one basket, but she threw me a bone
She was dealt a full deck, but she likes to live alone
Ain't just talkin' to myself, need a reason to stop (oh yeah)
With a flower in her teeth, she drained the last drop

I said girls love money like bees the honey

But lonely is the hunter, you're my one and only, and lonely is the hunter

Asked her for a refill, sweat flew off my face (oh yeah)
She's a legendary figure, kept me in a cage
She's a torture chamber, when I seduced her in my bed (ooh yeah)
She gave a cold reading, success went to her head

In the heat of the battle the heart cannot rule, I'm such a fool

But lonely is the hunter, you're my one and only, and lonely is the hunter
Lonely is the hunter, you're my one and only, and lonely is the hunter

Lonely is the hunter, you're my one and only, and lonely is the hunter
Lonely is the hunter, you're my one and only, and lonely is the hunter

How many times have they lied with the truth in their eyes
Treat you like dirt, wasting the days of our lives
They try and deny it, ain't gonna buy it, just look around
Before it's all over, it's gonna get rough

I've had enough -

Chorus:
(Out of the cold into the fire) Nothing and no one is stopping me now
(Out of the cold into the fire) Just hang tough and we'll make it somehow

How many times have you given up more than you got
Countin' on things turnin' out, but you know they will not
Ain't gonna take it, kick it and break it, just look around
Before it's all over it's gonna get rough

chorus repeats 2x

Wishin' and hopin' won't get you nothin'
Prayin' and schemin', no time for dreamin'
I've got the power, this is the hour now

Wishin' and hopin' won't get you nothin'
Prayin' and schemin', no time for dreamin'
I've got the power, this is the hour now

chorus repeats 2x
