I asked the lord and he said "no"
I say "why no"
I hear you're happy but it does not show
Where wild things are I dare not go
I say why lord, I say why
Gimme strength gimme patience
Gimme will no survive
Where the wild things are I dare not go
At first they make you happy this I know
But then they make you feel so low
Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I may be happy but it does not show
Where wild things are I dare not go
I say why lord I say why
I seen the fire and I touched the flame
And given the chance I'd go right back again
Hot summer rain burn me on the wheel
Baptize me with fire
Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I say why lord
I say "why no"
I hear you're happy but it does not show
Where wild things are I dare not go
I say why lord, I say why
Gimme strength gimme patience
Gimme will no survive
Where the wild things are I dare not go
At first they make you happy this I know
But then they make you feel so low
Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I may be happy but it does not show
Where wild things are I dare not go
I say why lord I say why
I seen the fire and I touched the flame
And given the chance I'd go right back again
Hot summer rain burn me on the wheel
Baptize me with fire
Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I say why lord
