Strange animals,
Strange,
Strange animals,
Strange.

Too complex to be tamed, too great to be grasped,
The wonder and beauty cannot be expressed,
So, will they devour you'
Well nobody knows,
Can't see what's behind those wild animal clothes,
I try to describe it but never succeed,
Moving around in a big make-believe,
Say you are this,
Say this is you,
You're one strange animal, I am one too.

Strange animals,
Strange,
Strange animals,
Strange.

If I were to give you an animal's name could I keep you locked in a cage in my brain'
Yes, I want to hold you but it is not clear just what your intention if I get too near.
I feel the danger, but I cannot leave,
Will you tear open the heart on my sleeve'
Thought you were this,
Thought this was you,
You're one strange animal, I am one too.

Strange animals,
Strange,
Strange animals,
Strange.

I try to describe it but never succeed,
Moving around in a big make-believe,
I say you are this,
Say this is you,
You're one strange animal, I am one too.
