Wild Boy Lyrics by From Ash & Dust

Explore

2017

The moon is howling at me, how could I not sing along
The sophisticated get shaken from wild eyes when they realize they’re not alone
They try to domesticate me, but I listen to their conversations, they say nothing at all
And they tell me it’s just protocol, but who really cares, yeah who really cares
Excuse me, down here, hey, Mr. Suit and tie, is that a costume or just a disguise
You’re pretty good at pretеnding that you actually know what you’re doing, what-whatcha doing
I should learn to fit in like you, but thе voices of the wildness keep calling
I know I shouldn’t go back to four-legged crawling, but who really cares, yeah who really cares
You can take the boy outta the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
But you can’t take the wild outta the wild boy
I hear them say, what a shame, so much wasted potential in what could’ve been a future-clone
Why do you say out there’s the jungle, you haven’t met my friends, you haven’t seen my home
I know I swing from ropes, and do things you don’t, you never taste the wild, you never entered
How are you supposed to diagnose, I’m an animal cuz I don’t fit in your agenda
And it’s crazy that the freedom in my soul is so untameable it’s labeled as the reason I’m insane cuz all you see
Is something different, call it symptoms, frazzled hair, wide eyed, pointed teeth, claws and muddy hands and feet
I won’t conform but I’ll compromise, maybe someday you’ll see my side
I’ll wear the disguise til it’s my time, you can find me and my friends back in the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
But you can’t take the wild outta the wild boy
Everywhere I go, I hear them say, look out below, here comes the wild boy
I think it’s time to rise, it’s about time to shine
And everywhere I go, Geronimo, hey, look out for the wild boy
Look out for the wild boy, yeah look out for the wild boy
You can take the boy outta the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
You can take the boy outta the wild
But you can’t take the wild outta the wild boy
