You whipped me, I'm hurting Abused me for certain And slavery should not exist Is this what I get a poison kiss Without you I'm dead meat I'm a raggedy dog dying in the street Of a God-forsaken shanty town Where gangs of children are hunted down I go wild when you're in my face I go wild when I taste your taste I go wild and I go insane I get sick, somebody stop this pain You left me, I'm brain dead I'm feeling nothing strapped to my bed On life support, tubes in my nose Tubes in my arms, shot full of holes I go wild when you're in my face I go wild when I taste your taste I go wild act like a goat And I get sick, lumps in my throat I go wild I go wild I go crazy, I go insane I get sick, somebody stop this pain And the doctors says you'll be okay And if you'd only stay away From femme fatales and dirty bitches And daylight drabs and night time witches And working girls and blue stockings And dance hall babes and body poppers And waitresses with broken noses Checkout girls striking poses And politicians' garish wives With alcoholic cunts like knives I go wild I go wild I go wild I go wild I go wild when you're in my face I go wild in a state of grace I go wild when you treat me bad I go wild, raving mad I go wild for you I go wild for you I go wild I go wild I go wild I go wild
