Animal Rites Lyrics


John Congleton & The Nighty Nite Animal Rites




[Verse 1]
I am a man with money in his hand
And lust in his heart, lust René Descartes
I'm a bad man, I am a bad man
And this is a plan for full dressed mayhem
An unquiet mind, biology kicks virtue's ass every time
I am a bad man
What I want is release and you can give that to me
Go on and call the police, I am happy and good
But goodness you all have to look out for me, that's right

[Verse 2]
You have married a mobile mortuary
Constantly living the first line of his obituary
And I'm a bad man
With the business of being, the business of breathing
The business of eating, the business of being a bad man
I am a bad man
When you're crazy at 20, you are sex to be had
When you're crazy at 50, you're not sexy, you're sad

[Chorus]
Give me your madness, don't give me your soul
I want your body but I need to be alone
You're with an animal
No need for your highness, no need to feel whole
I want to hold you but I need to hold my own
You're with an animal

[Post-Chorus]
You're with a warm body, carbon contents, atoms, and proteins
I'm on a rudderless illusion of meaning
I am a vessel here in vain with no in tow
And if you wanna see a dead body, take off your clothes

[Chorus]
Give me your madness, don't give me your soul
I want your body but I need to be alone
You're with an animal
No need for your highness, no need to feel whole
I want to hold you but I need to hold my own
You're with an animal

[Post-Chorus]
You're with a warm body, carbon contents, atoms, and proteins
I'm on a rudderless illusion of meaning
I am a vessel here in vain with no in tow
And if you wanna see a dead body, take off your clothes
Yeah, if you wanna see a dead body, take off your clothes
Yeah, if you wanna see a dead body, take off your clothes
Yeah, if you wanna see a dead body, take off your clothes
