Animal 57 (Just Like You)

I'm an animal 57 just like you
There's only one thing left for us to do
I'll hop the glass to your saline tank and rub up next to you
We'll make an animal 58 or maybe two

For most of us the world's a bloody mess
You could ride the tide feeling rightfully depressed I guess
In your laboratory eyes I see the light
Come take my wing
We'll roll into the night

I'm an animal 57 just like you
There's only one thing left for us to do
I'll hop the glass to your saline tank and rub up next to you
We'll make an animal 58 or maybe two

Some live their lives pinned down by hands of fate
Some say that good things come to those who wait
I say that life won't give you any breaks
Our destiny's controlled by what we take

You're the kind of bird that gets me sharpening my shiv
You've got nothing left to lose and I've got everything to give
Together we will over come this slaughterhouse we're in
With a resolution forged in hell and the stiffest upper lip

They say that good things come to those who wait
The robotic arms of doom are coming near
Make no mistake
Our destiny's controled by what we take
Tonight we're taking over here
We're making our escape

I'm an animal 57 just like you
There's only one thing left for us to do
I'll hop the glass to your saline tank and rub up next to you
We'll make an animal 58 or maybe two
I'm an animal just like you
and there's only one thing that we can do
I'll hop the glass and get next to you
We'll make and animal 58 or maybe two

Come on
Come on
Come take my wing
