Animal by Def Leppard

I've owned Def Leppard's Hysteria album for the past 3-4 years already, having only listened to it once. Just this weekend, I started to think again what made this album special, having sold about 20million records worldwide. This track caught my attention, it made a spark that other songs didn't. I just probably don't get the songs and can't relate to them, but this has that certain flair for a song i just can't explain. It also has an interesting video, somewhat relating the band in a circus setting.

A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame...oh, I burn for you!

I gotta feel it in my blood, Whoa-oh!
I need your touch don't need your love, Whoa-oh!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!

I cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain Yeah, like the restless rust... I never sleep!

I gotta feel it in my blood, Whoa-oh!
I need your touch don't need your love, Whoa-oh!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!

Huh! Oh!
Cry wolf baby
Cry tough
Gonna hunt you like an, uh, uh, animal
Gonna take your love n' run

I gotta feel it in my blood, Whoa-oh!
I need your touch don't need your love, Whoa-oh!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!

And I want (And I want)
And I need (And I need)
And I lust (And I lust)
Animal (Animal)
And I want (Take me)
And I need (Tame me)
And I lust (Make me)

And I need (Stroke me)

Animal (Animal)
And I want (I want)
And I need (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I lust (Yeah Animal)
Animal (Animal)
