Animal Behaviors

lyrics

ANIMAL BEHAVIORS.
animal behaviors in the everyday.
each and every city, state, county, country, avenue and driveway.
rational behaviors make the system tick.
make the human do the trick. earn the pay, procreate and quick fade.
the animal remembers those animal behaviors.
and it only wants to turn the clocks back.
animal behaviors are a parachute.
we've fallen from the trees into city streets - into something different.
the animal remembers who it used to be
and it wants to feed and it wants to breed and wants to change you.
the animal remembers.
we're delighting in living a lie. we are more ape than angel tonight.
it's fun, but it's only fun, no more. let's just enjoy it.
our faith has been wrongly placed in some who would destroy it.
meh. that's life. it's an unfair game, but nice if you exploit it.
animal behaviors. animal behaviors. animal behaviors.
