Oingo Boingo - Pedestrian Wolves - Текст песни

Raised by pedestrian wolves, out in the forest 

Raised by pedestrian wolves, out in the forest 

I was left to fend for myself 

I was left in a basket, just like baby Moses 

To float down that muddy river 

Protected by the stupid little fairies 


I floated for nine days and nights 

I floated for nine days and nights 

'Till I came to the city 

Bright lights and all the fine ladies 

Come on out all you bright fine ladies 

I like you just like you are, 

and I love you, kind of, 

Just like you are, and I love you 

Like a sticky piece of cotton candy 

in this bright red cotton candy, candy world 


(Chorus) 


I'm so excited , about the prospects of meeting with a 

Stranger in an alley, I'm so excited. I hope they're rough, I hope their 

skin is Tough like Spanish leather 

Can't wait until their dull, dead eyes meet mine 

I can't wait until their dull, dead eyes meet mine 

Raised by pedestrian wolves, out in the forest 

Raised by suburban lions, out in the jungle 


We really like to run in packs- and I like that 

When we hunt, we all function with one mind 

Our collective predications are as sharp as the 

Razor in my pocket, and as dull as the ice 

Melting slowly in my glass 

My only love is the love of oblivion, in a dark room 

With as couple of pedestrian wolves 

So artfully backlit by a solitary candle 

I take my pleasure in soft red clouds of desire 

So funky in this unwashed bed for one with the soft red dreams of oblivion 


(Chorus) 


I'm so excited 'cause soon I'll hit the streets 

I am the crown prince of pavement, I'm so excited 

Under the sheltering skin 

Stretched out so pale and thin 

There is an ocean of bright red liquid love 

And that, my friend, is my favorite color 

Raised by pedestrian wolves out in the forest 

And I take my pleasure on a soft red cloud 

And I take my pleasure in the monkey's bed 

And the wolves still howl and the light still glowing red 

And I take my pleasure in a blue steel cage 

And I take my pleasure through the monkey's eye 

And the wolves all howl while the world around me dies 


(Chorus) 


I'm so excited , about the prospects of meeting with a stranger 

In an alley, I'm so excited. I hope they're rough, I hope their skin is tough 

Like Spanish leather 

Raised by pedestrian wolves out in the forest 

Raised by pedestrian wolves - out in the forest 

I was left to fend for myself 

I was left in as basket - just like baby Moses 

To float down that Muddy River 

Protected by all those stupid little fairies 

I floated for nine days and nights 'til I came to the city 

Bright lights and all the fine ladies 

Come on out all you bright, fine ladies 

I like you just like you are, and I love you, kind of, 

Just like you are in this bright red cotton candy, candy world 

Raised by pedestrian wolves...
