Pedestrian wolves lyrics

Artist  : Oingo boingo 
Song : Pedestrian wolves
 

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...
