Lyrics
Wild Black Dogs
Now you got control
Your thoughts create reality
You got a lockdown
On all anxiety
Your mind’s a pool of white light
Butter stays cool on your tongue
But your soul bleeds
Like a broken battery
And the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
Even though you bar the door
And screw the lid on tight
Yeah the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
If you can ride the spinning coil
Of rage and jealousy
Why, you can be a loser
Just like me
But the wild black dogs are howling
They can smell the sweat of fear
You better pack up all the glory
And get out of here
When the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
It’s time to bar the door
And screw the lid on tight
When the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
When the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
Even though you bar the door
And screw the lid on tight
Yeah the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
Yeah the wild black dogs come leaping
Into the night
