Pedestrian Wolves Lyrics by Oingo Boingo

Pedestrian Wolves Lyrics

    Raised by pedestrian wolves, out in the forest
    Raised by pedestrian wolves, out in the forest
    I was left to fend for myself
    I was left in a basket, just like baby moses
    To float down that muddy river
    Protected by the stupid little fairies

    I floated for nine days and nights
    I floated for nine days and nights
    'till i came to the city
    Bright lights and all the fine ladies
    Come on out all you bright fine ladies
    I like you just like you are,
    And i love you, kind of,
    Just like you are, and i love you
    Like a sticky piece of cotton candy
    In this bright red cotton candy, candy world

    (chorus)

    I'm so excited , about the prospects of meeting with a
    Stranger in an alley, i'm so excited. i hope they're rough, i hope their
    Skin is tough like spanish leather
    Can't wait until their dull, dead eyes meet mine
    I can't wait until their dull, dead eyes meet mine
    Raised by pedestrian wolves, out in the forest
    Raised by suburban lions, out in the jungle

    We really like to run in packs- and i like that
    When we hunt, we all function with one mind
    Our collective predications are as sharp as the
    Razor in my pocket, and as dull as the ice
    Melting slowly in my glass
    My only love is the love of oblivion, in a dark room
    With as couple of pedestrian wolves
    So artfully backlit by a solitary candle
    I take my pleasure in soft red clouds of desire
    So funky in this unwashed bed for one with the soft red dreams of oblivion

    (chorus)

    I'm so excited 'cause soon i'll hit the streets
    I am the crown prince of pavement, i'm so excited
    Under the sheltering skin
    Stretched out so pale and thin
    There is an ocean of bright red liquid love
    And that, my friend, is my favorite color
    Raised by pedestrian wolves out in the forest
    And i take my pleasure on a soft red cloud
    And i take my pleasure in the monkey's bed
    And the wolves still howl and the light still glowing red
    And i take my pleasure in a blue steel cage
    And i take my pleasure through the monkey's eye
    And the wolves all howl while the world around me dies

    (chorus)

    I'm so excited , about the prospects of meeting with a stranger
    In an alley, i'm so excited. i hope they're rough, i hope their skin is tough
    Like spanish leather
    Raised by pedestrian wolves out in the forest
    Raised by pedestrian wolves - out in the forest
    I was left to fend for myself
    I was left in as basket - just like baby moses
    To float down that muddy river
    Protected by all those stupid little fairies
    I floated for nine days and nights 'til i came to the city
    Bright lights and all the fine ladies
    Come on out all you bright, fine ladies
    I like you just like you are, and i love you, kind of,
    Just like you are in this bright red cotton candy, candy world
    Raised by pedestrian wolves...
