From the recording Where the Wild Things Are
Inspired by that beloved children's book by the same name, this is a fun loving tune about the spirit of adventure.
Lyrics
Anybody says the world’s so small
Never been outside of four walls
Time is torture to a restless soul
Only one cure you gotta get up and go
Get a ticket that says one way
No more stalling gonna leave today
You get one bag, no phone
Gotta give up the clutter if you’re going to roam
Let me take you where the wild things are
This place just ain’t enough for you
Gonna show you how to shoot the stars
Let me take you where the wild things are
Book passage on a merchant ship
See a belly dancer wiggle those hips
Dromedary carry you across the sand
The original road trip caravan
Let me take you where the wild things are
This place just ain’t enough for you
Gonna show you how to shoot the stars
Let me take you where the wild things are
Show me your teeth when you
Howl at the moon
Don’t it feel like the morning
Comes too soon?
Dive down in the crystal sea
Grab one for you and one for me
They got crustaceans and octopi
Color of the water is the color of the sky
Dance to the rhythm of a jungle drum
Natives gonna show you a new kind of fun
Cook your dinner on an open flame
Nothing ever gonna taste quite the same
Let me take you where the wild things are
This place just ain’t enough for you
Gonna show you how to shoot the stars
Let me take you where the wild things are
Let me take you where the wild things are
This place just ain’t enough for you
Gonna show you how to shoot the stars
Let me take you where the wild things are
