Calvi’s cover of the original song by the band TV On The Radio. The song has been released on Domino 3 times: first as a promotional single (2011) , then as the B-side to her single Jezebel (Version Française) (2012), and on her Live at Meltdown recording (2017). Wolf Like Me is also one of the son...
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
Bust that box gotta gut that fish
We could jet in a stolen car
But I bet we wouldn't get too far
Before the transformation takes
And bloodlust tanks and crave gets slaked
My mind has changed
My body's frame but god I like it
My hearts aflame
My heart's strained but god I like it
My mind has changed
My body's frame but god I like it
My hearts aflame
My heart'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'll 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
My mind has changed
My body's frame but god I like it
My hearts aflame
My heart's strained but god I like it
My mind has changed
My body's frame but god I like it
My hearts aflame
My heart's strained but god I like it
My body's frame, my mind has changed
But god I like it
My hearts aflame
My heart's strained but god I like it
Dream me oh dreamer
Down to the floor
Open my hands and let them weave onto yours
Feel me, completer
Down to my core
Open my heart and let it bleed onto yours
Feeding on fever
Down all fours
Show you what all that howl is for
