Wild Life Lyrics

THE WORD "WILD" APPLIES TO THE WORDS "YOU" AND "ME".

WHEN WE HAD THE GROUP WINGS I DID A SONG CALLED 'WILD LIFE' AND THIS IS PROMTED BY A VISIT I HAD TO AN AFRICAN WILD LIFE PARK, YEAH, I THINK IT WAS A PLACE CALLED 'AMBASELLY', THEY HAD A GREAT SIGN THERE, IT SAID, 'REMEMBER THE ANIMALS HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY!' SO IF YOU'RE IN YOUR CAR THERE AND THERE WAS A BIG ELEPHANT ON THE ROAD IN FRONT OF YOU, YOU HAD TO JUST WAIT 'TIL HE GOT OUT THE WAY, YOU COULD'T BEEP HIM. SO I USED THAT LINE, 'THE ANIMALS HAVING THE RIGHT OF WAY' IN THE SONG 'WILD LIFE'. LET'S HEAR A BIT OF THAT NOW, MAN!

WHILE TAKING A WALK THRU AN AFRICAN PARK ONE DAY,
I SAW A SIGN SAY, THE ANIMALS HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY.
WILD LIFE, WHATEVER HAPPENED TO
WILD LIFE, THE ANIMALS IN THE ZOO?

YOU'RE BREATHING SO HOT, (YEH),
A LOT OF POLITICAL NONSENSE IN THE AIR.
YOU'RE MAKING IT HARD FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THERE.
YOU'RE MOVING SO FAST, BUT, BABY, YOU KNOW NOT WHERE.
WILD LIFE, (wild life) WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO
WILD LIFE, (wild life) THE ANIMALS IN THE ZOO?

OH, OH, OH, OH, OH,
(Uh-uh-uh)
(Uh-uh-uh)
OH, OH, OH, OH, OH.

YOU'D BETTER STOP!
THERE'S ANIMALS EV'RYWHERE,
AND MAN IS THE TOP, AN ANIMAL TOO,
AND, MAN, YOU JUST GOT TO CARE.
OH, WILD LIFE, (wild life) WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO
WILD LIFE, (wild life) THE ANIMALS IN THE ZOO?

OH, OH, OH, OH, OH-OH-OH, OH-OH-OH,
YEAH, OH-OH-OH, OH-OH-OH.

YOU'RE BREATHING A LOT OF POLITICAL NONSENSE IN THE AIR,
YOU'RE MAKING IT HARD FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THERE.
WILD LIFE, (wild life) WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
WILD LIFE, (wild life) THE ANIMALS IN THE ZOO - OOH?
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
(Wild life)
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
(Wild life)
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
WILD LIFE, (wild life) WHATEVER HAPPENED TO,
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
WILD - (wild life) THE ANIMALS IN THE ZOO-OO-OO?
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
WILD LIFE, (wild life) WHATEVER HAPPENED TO,
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)
(Wild life)
(Whatever happened to, whatever happened to)

OOBU JOOBU, WE LOVE YOU,
OOBU JOOBU.

THERE'S A SONG I ALWAYS USED TO LOVE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, IT WAS CALLED 'NATURE BOY' AND IT WAS ABOUT A NATURE LOVER AND WHEN I WANTED TO WRITE A SONG ALONG THE SAME KIND OF LINES I CHOOSED THE TITLE 'MOTHER NATURE'S SON'.
AND I WROTE THIS, I THINK, UP IN LIVERPOOL WHEN I WAS VISITING MY DAD ONE TIME.
AND IT WAS JUST ABOUT MY LOVE OF NATURE, MY LOVE OF THE COUNTRY SIDE AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT LINDA AND I FOUND WE HAD IN COMMON, WE MARRIED OVER 25 YEARS AGO, WOULD YOU BELIEVE? NO, I CAN'T! WELL, IT IT'S TRUE, WAS OUR LOVE OF NATURE. TURNS OUT WHILE I WAS WANDERING ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF LIVERPOOL LOOKING AT THE FIELDS AND THE BIRDS AND LOOKING AT THE WILD LIFE WHICH I USED TO LOVE TO DO AS A QUIET MOMENT, SHE WOULD BE IN THE BACK GARDENS IN NEW YORK, IN THE SCARSDALE WHERE SHE USED TO LIVE, AND SHE'D, BE GOING DOWN TO THE BACK OF A VACANT LOT WHERE NOBODY EVER USED TO GO, HAD A LITTLE STREAM, IT WAS A FAVOURITE SPOT, SHE USED TO GO THERE AND LIFT UP THE ROCKS AND HAD A LOOK FOR THINGS LIKE SALAMANDERS AND STUFF. SO, IT TURNS OUT WE BOTH HAD THIS DEEP LOVE FOR NATURE. SO, HERE'S MY SONG 'MOTHER NATURE'S SON'.
