Animal Lyrics - Kinks

On reflection, it was not all wine on the wall 

It was not all cuts and bruises 

Or the pulling out of hair 

And the bloodying of nose 

And the tearing off of clothes, although 

It was really animal, truly animal 

There were times when there was absolute compassion in the air 

Though it was really animal, truly animal 

It could not compare to times we cared 

And were in control and less emotional

While the intellect controls the spiritual 

The animal respects what's natural 

Ying and yang control man's actions 

And both extremes are a natural reaction 

It was really animal, truly animal, 

Well there were times when there was absolute compassion in the air 

On reflection it was not all crash and bang 

Broken bottles and abuse 

Sometimes there were sunsets on the sands 

Holding onto caring hands 

But there were vampire fangs 

As the angels sang 

It was ying and yang, oh yeah 

It was truly natural, though it was really animal 

In a sense it fell into a truly natural romance 

Photos 

Oh yeah, 

It was really animal, truly animal 

There were times when there was absolute compassion in the air 

True love, true love, true love is really animal
