Wild Ones

from Minimalist by Garlic City

/

lyrics

You were talking like an owl who
sleeps through the night,
But you're lying,
Lying there on the floor of your modern home,
That you so much adore

And you were talking about the snow that stays
Stuck on the ground here,
But you're lying, while you're lying
There on the floor of your modern home,
That you so much adore

I'm not fascinated with the picture
Sure you say it's fact,
but not from the scripture
I believe there is no other fixture
For the mess that you've made up

I'm not meant for your neighbourhood
Or your "Brave New World" where everyone is so
Misunderstood
No I can't go
'Cause I'm a wild one

You were talking like a mother who
Hates on her child,
But you're lying,
Lying there on the floor of your modern home,
That you so much adore

You were talking like my God
Isn't much a creator,
But you're lying, while you're lying
There on the floor of your modern home,
That you so much adore

I'm not meant for your neighbourhood
Or your "Brave New World" where everyone is so
Misunderstood
No I can't go
'Cause I'm a wild one

Look what we can do
How could you expect us to
Live from a papyrus of
Noviceness and what-to-do's?
Look what we can do
How could you expect us to
Live from a papyrus of
Noviceness and how-to-do's?

I know who I am,
But I'm "misunderstood"
There are too many houses in this neighbourhood

In the back, there are houses,
Made of grass, beyond the mountains
Where there is fact of your fiction
In your diction, on your way of living

Oh, I can't go 'cause I'm a wild one
