Willard! Lyrics

[00:00.78] "Where your nightmares end"
[00:02.70]
[00:13.12] You know I couldn't hurt a fly, my friend
[00:18.20] I'm not the type to step on ants
[00:22.84] I've nearly cried for moths that die at porchlight lamps
[00:27.12] More for the plights of mice than men
[00:32.88] See, I myself have been stepped on so many times
[00:37.69] It's started to feel like my place
[00:42.51] I've failed to fit in into those nests that scrape the sky
[00:47.62] Is there room for me in your cage?
[00:52.93] Animals are people too, but these people are animals
[00:57.63] Hunt in packs and act as though that proves we can't survive alone
[01:02.60] And I guess we just evolved disgust for prevention of infection though
[01:08.19] Shame was an invention made for prisons, pales, and pest control
[01:12.77] Yeah, sure, thumbs are great and all
[01:16.07] But I just get bear necessities, hakuna matatas and c'est le vie's
[01:20.84] Que sera sera's, what a crock!
[01:23.41] I mean, big talk for a chimpanzee
[01:25.88] You might seem behind bars, but friend, this cage is inside out
[01:34.81] It's awful out here, Socrates!
[01:39.04]
[01:48.12] I've never understood what humans do and want
[01:52.14] It's quite confusing to me to try to connect
[01:57.25] Never learned how I should feel, instincts somehow stunted
[02:01.12] Just seem haunted by my stupid urge to protect
[02:06.55] Until frustration makes me wish my teeth were sharp as yours
[02:11.29] Chew through their garage doors, these carnivores will no more use my heart
[02:15.94] They'll call me crazy but their words all seem made up to me
[02:20.76] Maybe they just need more friendship like yours
[02:25.66] So gather around Pandora's Skinner's Box, look through the one-way mirror
[02:30.29] If you can see in shades of gray the colors are much clearer
[02:35.02] Oh, my friend, you've got a friend in me
[02:37.66] Let's go and make more enemies
[02:40.08] Although my eyes face forward, climb up on my shoulder
[02:45.16] Sure you'll see my point of view, I'd bring you with me
[02:48.27] To my office in my pocket, but the world would put us down
[02:54.01] Lock me up and toss the key
[02:58.67] You might seem behind bars, but friend, this cage is inside out
[03:07.83] It's dangerous out here, Socrates!
[03:15.90] It's lonely out here, Socrates!
[03:24.88]
