What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Well, how come you only want tomorrow?
2
With its promise of something hard to do
3
A real-life adventure
4
Worth more than pieces of gold
5
Blue skies above, sun on your arms
6
Strength in your stride and hope in those squeaky-clean eyes
7
(Hope in those squeaky-clean eyes)
8
You'll get chilly receptions everywhere you go
9
Blinded with desire, I guess the season is on
10
So you train by shadow boxing, search for the truth
11
But it's all, but it's all used up
12
Break open your million-dollar weapon and push your luck
13
Still you push, still you push your luck
14
A broken-nosed mogul are you
15
One of the new-wave boys
16
Same old thing in brand, new drag
17
Comes sweeping into view, whoa, hoe, hoe, hoe, hoe, hoe
18
As ugly as a teenage millionaire
19
Pretending it's a whizz-kid world
20
You'll take me aside, and say
21
"Well, David, what shall I do?
22
They wait for me in the hallway"
23
I'll say, "Don't ask me, I don't know any hallways"
24
But they move in numbers and they've got me in a corner
25
I feel like a group of one
26
No, no, they can't do this to me
27
I'm not some piece of teenage wildlife
28
(Ooo, not some piece of teenage wildlife
29
Ooo, not some piece of teenage wildlife)
30
Those midwives to history put on their bloody robes
31
And the word is that the hunted one is out there on his own
32
And you're alone for maybe the last time
33
And you breathe for a long time
34
Then you howl like a wolf in a trap and you daren't look behind
35
You fall to the ground, like a leaf from a tree
36
And look up, one time, at that vast blue sky
37
Scream out of line as they shoot you down
38
No, no, I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife
39
(Ooo, not a piece of teenage wildlife)
40
I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife
41
(Ooo, not a piece teenage wildlife
42
Ooo, not a piece of teenage wildlife)
43
And no one will have seen and no one will confess
44
The fingerprints will prove that you coudn't pass the test
45
There'll be others on the line, filing past, who'll whisper low
46
"I miss you," he really had to go
47
Well, each to his own, he was another piece of teenage wildlife
48
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
49
'Nother piece of teenage wildlife
50
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
51
'Nother piece of teenage wildlife
52
(Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
53
Wildlife (Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
54
Wildlife (Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
55
Wildlife (Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
56
Wildlife (Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife
57
Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife
58
Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife
59
Ooo, 'nother piece of teenage wildlife)
