When I Was an Animal Lyrics

When I was an animal I acted pretty badly
Yet you somehow treated me so well
I jumped on you in bed, sank fangs into your flesh
Your breasts were often lunch and your house was my hotel

I covered you with semen, did not control my urine
Licked you in the face because I like a salty tongue
Chewed your iPhone cable, left poo on the table
And when you had guests in showed my genitals and bum

And yet you didn't punish me, you fed me and you loved me
What happened to the way that we began?
When I was an animal the stars glittered above me
There's just the ceiling now I am a man

When I was an animal I didn't have a job
Didn't give you children or do the washing up
Now you give me hell when the bathtub overfills
Charge me actual money for my share of the bills

When I'm creeping back to being an animal again
You inform me I'm a bastard and a pain
You say that I'm responsible, I'm a human being
My days of being an animal are well and truly gone

I walk on my hind legs now, brush my hair and part it
What happened to the way that we began?
When I was an animal I took so much for granted
Now I wonder who or what I am

When I was an animal you fed me and you loved me
What became of the way that we began?
When I was an animal the stars glittered above me
There's just the ceiling now I am a man
