It has been in everyone of us
Since the beginning of mankind´s path
You can try to hold it back inside
But be aware it will never die

You´ve been teaching me to hold it since school
In a bay of restrictions and rules
In my mind with words it´s wrong and shame
Supressing my nature leads to pain

PreChorus:
Don´t try to tame a power
That dwells in me
´Cos if I don´t let it out
It will break out you´ll see

Chorus:
I´m an animal – upright on two feet
I´m an animal – satisfaction I need
I´m an animal – do what I feel
I´m an animal – shout it out and scream

I feel no shame I´m coming from an ape
I let my instincts unleash and escape
It is deep in everyone of us
Realize it or you´ll cross law lines

Chorus:
I´m an animal – upright on two feet
I´m an animal – satisfaction I need
I´m an animal – do what I feel
I´m an animal – shout it out and scream

Chorus:
I´m an animal – upright on two feet
I´m an animal – satisfaction I need
I´m an animal – do what I feel
I´m an animal – shout it out and scream
I´m an animal – no shame on my side
Nevermore – no prison in suit and tie
