Wild thing
I'll eat you up into something new
You'll say last night in my room
A forest grew and grew
Until the walls were green
And from the ceiling fell vines
And you lay there wishing your world was mine
You jumped into a boat and sailed out very far
For weeks and years until you came to where the wild things are
And they roar, and they roll, and they claw with their terrible eyes
Be still you will say and they'll fall
Cause you're the wildest of all
There's a wild thing inside of our souls
And a sense of home from young to old
Inside of each of us there is a hidden child
All you have to do is learn to be wild
And they roar, and they roll, and they claw with their terrible eyes
Be still you will say and they'll fall
I am the sun
I will rise and I'll set
But you're the brightest thing I've ever met
I'll eat you up into something new
You'll say last night in my room
A forest grew and grew
Until the walls were green
And from the ceiling fell vines
And you lay there wishing your world was mine
You jumped into a boat and sailed out very far
For weeks and years until you came to where the wild things are
And they roar, and they roll, and they claw with their terrible eyes
Be still you will say and they'll fall
Cause you're the wildest of all
There's a wild thing inside of our souls
And a sense of home from young to old
Inside of each of us there is a hidden child
All you have to do is learn to be wild
And they roar, and they roll, and they claw with their terrible eyes
Be still you will say and they'll fall
I am the sun
I will rise and I'll set
But you're the brightest thing I've ever met
