Wild thing

 I'll eat you up into something new

You'll say last night in my room

 A forest grew and grew

Until the walls were green

 And from the ceiling fell vines

And you lay there wishing your world was mine

You jumped into a boat and sailed out very far

For weeks and years until you came to where the wild things are

 And they roar, and they roll, and they claw with their terrible eyes

 Be still you will say and they'll fall

Cause you're the wildest of all

There's a wild thing inside of our souls

And a sense of home from young to old

Inside of each of us there is a hidden child

All you have to do is learn to be wild

 And they roar, and they roll, and they claw with their terrible eyes

 Be still you will say and they'll fall

 I am the sun

 I will rise and I'll set

But you're the brightest thing that I ever met
