Wild Thing

Wild thing

I'll eat you up into something new

You'll say last night in my room

A forest grew and grew

Until the walls were green

And from the ceiling fell vines

And you lay there wishing your world was mine

You jumped into a boat

and sailed out very far

For weeks and years until you

came to where the wild things are

And they roar, and they roll,

and they claw with their terrible eyes

Be still you will say and they'll fall

Cause you're the wildest of all

There's a wild thing inside of our souls

And a sense of home from young to old

Inside of each of us there is a hidden child

All you have to do is learn to be wild

And they roar, and they roll,

and they claw with their terrible eyes

Be still you will say and they'll fall

I am the sun

I will rise and I'll set

But you're the brightest thing I've ever met
