[Verse 1]
Lie down and close your eyes
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey
You may be in for a little surprise
Hey now, hey now, hey now

[Verse 2]
[???]
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey
Something wild with a mind of its own
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now

[Verse 1]
Scamper about
Like [?] little beasts
Looking for a house
Or maybe just a hole 'til its safe to come out
Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Verse 2]
Scamper all around
Way up in a tree
Or far beneath the ground
Where they’ll never catch a predator or prey
Baby baby don’t cry
[Verse 3]
It’s part of the scheme
Nature always wins
It isn’t what it seems
But we all have our days when nothing goes right
Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Verse 4]
Scamper through the night
Our little ears alert
I haven’t seen the light
Ooh, it doesn’t even hurt if we have a little fun
Baby baby don’t cry
Baby baby don’t cry

[Chorus]
There’s animals under my skin
There’s animals itching within
There’s animals waiting to get out
There's animals
You try and stop and they say
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now, hey

[Verse 5]
Wake up, they’re coming alive
We’re changing so fast
They don’t want to be left behind
Can’t stop
Baby, baby, don’t cry
[Verse 6]
Scamper on the sidewalk
The city’s meant for her
We don’t need clothes
Soon we’ll have our own fur
So what's so wrong?
Baby, baby, don't cry

[Verse 7]
Time to go
And join up with the pack
It’s not worth a fight
It’s too late for turning back
No regrets
Baby, baby, don’t cry

[Chorus]
There’s animals under my skin
There’s animals under my skin, okay!

[Guitar Solo]

[Interlude]
Why don’t they leave me alone?
They’re hurting me now
It’s just a matter of time
I’m multiplying, I’m multiplying
The whole thing’s coming undone
We’re on the run
Get back, come get with the pack
Of animals, the animals
[Outro]
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals under my skin
There's animals scampering about
There's animals waiting to get out
