        A#  C              A#  C
A wild ride,  over stony ground
                 A#  C                     A#   C
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
                   A#  C                A#   C
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid
                   A#  C                   A#
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame, oh
C
I burn for you

B        F#            C#
I gotta feel it in my blood, whoa oh
B            F#                     C#
I need your touch, don't need your love, whoa oh

Chorus:
        F#          E
(And I want, and I need)
        B        A
(And I lust, animal)
        F#          E
(And I want, and I need)
        B        A
(And I lust, animal)

I cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a moving heartbeat, in the witching hour
I'm running with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the driving rain, hey, like the restless rust
I never sleep

Chorus

Huh! Oh! Cry wolf baby, cry tough
Going to hunt you like an, uh, uh, animal
Going to take your love and run

Chorus

And I want (And I want)
And I need (And I need)
And I lust (And I lust)
Animal (Animal)

And I want (Take me)
And I need (Tame me)
And I lust (Make me)
Animal (Your Animal)

And I want (Show me)
And I need (Stroke me)
And I lust (Let me be your)
Animal (Animal)

And I want (I want)
And I need (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
And I lust
Animal (Animal)
