From the primordial soup out of the din and the bloom we came 
We are animal by any of the name 
From the primordial soup out of the din and the bloom we came 
We are animal one unbroken chain 
I need to get you out of your cave man 
I need to let you out of your cage and set you free 
If tonight's the night I'm gonna show you I ain't got no game plan 
Out from under a rock from a prehistoric sea we crawled 
We are animal animal one and all 
Out from under a rock from the prehistoric sea we came 
We are animal animal one unbroken chain 
I know what you're searching for, I pray that you find it on the instinct 
I don't need you hurting boy animalistic 
If you call out tonight and hear the call of the wild reply 
You are animal animal not so deep inside 
If you call out in vain everyone of us just the same 
We are animal dare not speak its name 
I need to get you out of your cave, man (primitive) 
I'm gonna let you out of your cage and set you free 
If tonight's the night I wanna show you I ain't got no game plan 
Primitive love for me
