BY JAY WELLER
THERE’S A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
AND HE’S COMING TO YOUR TOWN
BETTER LOCK THE DOORS
YOU DON’T WANNA BE AROUND
BECAUSE HE’S A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
HE’S A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
YEA….
A DESERTED CITY LANE
RACING WHITE HEADLIGHTS
A MAD SEPTEMBER RAIN
TO CHASE THE ANGRY NIGHT
AN OLD MAN AND HIS CANE
LIMPS ACROSS THE WAY
DRIVER FLATTENS ON THE GAS
AND FIXES ON HIS PREY
THE MAN SPEEDS HIS BROKEN GAIT
DRIVER SPEEDING FASTER
MAN SCRAMBLES FROM THE FATE
BY HIS UNFORGIVING MASTER
HE LIVES IN A PHOSPHORESCENT SCENE
THE GREAT BIG TV SCREEN
HE DOESN’T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN LAUGHTER AND A SCREAM
YOU CAN YELL, BERATE AND SHOUT
THREATEN THAT THE TRUTH WILL SOON COME OUT
HE CANNOT COMPREHEND
HE DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN
HE WANTS THE GREAT BIG HOUSE
HE WANTS THE FANCY CAR
HE WANTS ALL THERE IS IN CANDYLAND
THE FANTASY TRIP TO MARS
DON’T NEED NO BOOKS OR DUMB DEGREE
DON’T NEED NO CAREFUL PLANNED OUT SCHEMES
BECAUSE SOME C LIST CELEBRITY
SAID YOU COULD HAVE ALL THAT YOU DREAM
HE’S A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
HE’S A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
HE’S A NEW KIND OF ANIMAL
YEA….
