Modern Animal Lyrics by Magic City Hippies

Modern Animal

2019

[Verse 1]
Honey, I'm an animal
Without a manual
I've been shooting from the hips since I was
Very young
A silver-tongued devil
Mama raised a rebel
Sorry if you thought this was love
[Pre-Chorus]
And you're right if I had you tonight I wouldn't call the next day
I've been thinking we've been drinking the fire to keep the demons at bay
[Chorus]
I'm just another modern ani-
Animal, animal
I'm just another modern ani-
Animal
Oh, ain't got no manual, yeah yeah
I'm just another modern animal
[Verse 2]
I see the world with childlike wonder
Sometimes you get under
Someone to get over them now
Fell in love
With your own reflection
Intimate affection
Classically conditioned to see
[Pre-Chorus]
The stripes on your skin
We sin to keep hunting prey
Some things I can't control
In my soul it tells me to stay
[Chorus]
I'm just another modern ani-
Animal, animal
I'm just another modern ani-
Animal
Oh, I ain't got no manual, yeah yeah
I'm just another modern ani-
Animal
[Bridge]
Honey, no way
Too evolved for me
Make a mistake
Show you all my teeth
When you're lying in fluorescence
Sliding off your dress with
A fortune teller prescience
[Interlude]
[Outro]
Open my love
Come in to the shadows
I've been waiting for you
Morphine made you do this
I want to be open, my love
Combing through the shallows
I've been patient, your move
Nothing in between us
I want to be open, my love
Hold me while you dazzle
I've been waiting for you
On your wheels you pull me
I want to be open
I want to be open
I want to be open
