Wolf Like Me Lyrics

I now present the product of literally fourteen man-hours of listening, editing, and not peeing. Seven hours by Amateis and seven by me.


Say say my playmate
Won't you lay hands on me
Erode my malady
Transfer my tragedy

Got a curse I cannot lift
Shines when the sunset shifts
When the moon is round and full
Gotta bust that box, gotta gut that fish

(My heart's aflame)

Beat the debt in a stolen car
But I might wait with a debt too far
'Fore the transformation takes him
Bloodlust taints him with my mistakes

My mind is chained
My body's free
And God I like it
My heart's aflame
My body's strained
And God I like it

My mind is chained
My body's free
And God I like it
My heart's aflame
My body's strained
And God I like it

Drug-free your date rape
I'll turn you out in time
When the moon is round and full
Gonna teach you tricks that will blow your mongrel mind

Never thought I'd recognize
You're a hideous thing inside
Simmer down for a lucky time
It's you, you, you, you

I'll demonstrate another way to get to know you
You'll never know unless you go so let me show you
I know it's great, another way to get to know you
You've got to move, you've come to move so let it show you

(Show you now)

Dream me your dream, go down to the floor
Open my hands and let em weave up yours
Feeling hope return down to my core
Open my heart and let it bleed on yours
Feeding our fever down on all fours
Show you what all the howl is for

Hey hey my plaything
Left me no ways to go
Burn down naiveties
It's hot, hot, hot, hot

Got a curse that you cannot lift
Shines back when the sunset shifts
Let me go, I'll remember this
Gonna bite that knot, gonna get that dinner

Can't believe you're gone for good
But remember your ridin' hood
Tell your granny and your mama, too
It's true, true, true, true

(We're howling forever ooo-oo)



Everyone is absolutely forbidden from asking where we got this album or why we were so gung-ho on figuring out the lyrics.

Update: (9/17/06)
I decided to give in and take other interpretations into consideration, probably because the album is legally "out" now. Here are the new lyrics.

Say say my playmate
Won't you lay hands on me
Mirror my malady
Transfer my tragedy

Got a curse I cannot lift
Shines when the sunset shifts
When the moon is round and full
Gotta bust that box, gotta gut that fish

My mind's aflame

We could jet in a stolen car
But I bet we wouldn't get too far
'Fore the transformation takes and
Bloodlust tanks and crave gets slaked

My mind has changed my body's frame
But God, I like it
My heart's aflame, my body's strained
But god, I like it

My mind has changed my body's frame
But God, I like it
My heart's aflame, my body's strained
But God, I like it

Charge me your day rate
I'll turn you out in kind
When the moon is round and full
Gonna teach you tricks that will blow your mongrel mind

Baby doll, I recognize
You're a hideous thing inside
If ever there were a lucky kind
It's you, you, you, you

I know its strange another way to get to know you
You'll never know unless we go so let me show you
I know its strange another way to get to know you
We've got till noon here comes the moon
So let it show you
Show you now

Dream me, oh dreamer
Down to the floor
Open my hands and let 'em
Weave onto yours

Feel me, completer
Down to my core
Open my heart and let it
Bleed onto yours

Feeding our fever
Down all fours
Show you what all the
Howl is for

Hey, hey, my playmate
Let me lay waste to thee
Burned down their hanging trees
It's hot, hot, hot, hot

Got a curse we cannot lift
Shines when the sunset shifts
There's a curse comes with a kiss
The bite that binds the gift that gives

Now that we got gone for good
Writhing under your riding hood
Tell your gra'ma and your mama too
It's true, true, true, true

We're howling forever (oh-ohhh)
