Animals
Maroon 5 Lyrics

Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
I'm on the hunt for you tonight

Hunt you down eat you alive
I want to capture you and consume you

Just like animals
My behavior towards you is like that of an animal

Animals
Just repeating the title of the song

Like animals-mals
Just repeating the title of the song with emphasis

Maybe you think that you can hide
You might believe that you can avoid me

I can smell your scent for miles
But I can detect your presence from a great distance

So what you trying to do to me
What are you attempting to make me feel

It's like we can't stop, we're enemies
It appears that we can't end our conflict and remain antagonistic towards each other

But we get along when I'm inside you, eh
But we have a good relationship when we're physically intimate

You're like a drug that's killing me
You are dangerously addictive like a drug

I cut you out entirely
I've tried to remove you completely from my life

But I get so high when I'm inside you
But I experience an intense, euphoric feeling when we're physically intimate

Yeah, you can start over you can run free
You have the choice to move on and leave me behind

You can find other fish in the sea
You can look for another partner

You can pretend it's meant to be
You can try to convince yourself that we're meant for each other

But you can't stay away from me
But you can't resist coming back to me

I can still hear you making that sound
I still hear your moaning and groaning

Taking me down rolling on the ground
We're physically intimate and rolling around on the floor

You can pretend that it was me
You can try to convince yourself that someone else is the one making you feel this way

But no, oh
But deep down, you know it's me

So if I run it's not enough
If I try to escape from you, that won't be sufficient

You're still in my head forever stuck
You're permanently lodged in my thoughts

So you can do what you wanna do, eh
So you're free to do whatever you please

I love your lies I'll eat 'em up
I enjoy hearing untruths from you and will accept them

But don't deny the animal
But don't deny the primal urge we have for each other

That comes alive when I'm inside you
That grows stronger when we're physically intimate

Don't tell no lie, lie, lie, lie
Don't lie to me

You can't deny-ny-ny-ny
You can't deny your true feelings

The beast inside-side-side-side
The primal nature within us

No girl, don't lie, lie, lie, lie (no girl don't lie)
Don't lie to me, girl

The beast inside-side-side-side
The primal nature within us
