ANIMAL FEELINGS

Words & Music by: Piet Louter



Deep at heart
You do know all about yourself.
How you really feel
In the trammels of your faith.
That you must join in a civilized play.
Always mind what people would say,
If you’d carelessly give way
To your unreasoning wants.

Animal feelings, that’s what you’ve got.
But you learned to conceal it
And pretend to have not.
But you still have your passions,
That you never can lose
In habits and fashion, manners and use.


And you know,
You really felt in devilish hands.
But you can break your chains
By the godhead in yourself.
If you are aware of your life is a lie,
You’ve been able to reach for the sky.
You can have your wings and fly
Wherever you want to.

Animal feelings, that’s what you’ve got.
But you learned to conceal it
And pretend to have not.
But you still have your passions,
That you never can lose
In habits and fashion, manners and use.

Animal feelings run in your blood
But you’re just made unfeeling
So you hardly forgot.
That you still have your passions,
That you never can lose
In habits and fashion, manners and use.
