Mechanized society has got us
In its clutch,
It's bleeding us dry, you know
It's just too much,
Another way for the Man
To keep us all down,
Spinning us around, then
Grinding us in the ground,
You know you'd think in time
We'd learn our lessons well,
And learn to escape our over-mechanized
Over-civilized, over-sterilized living jail cell,
Then do what I want to do, and that is,
Run with the wolves at midnight
Do the runic dance by the firelight
See what lies beyond my sight
With all my main and might I'm gonna
Heed the call of the wild
Out in the wild things are
Much more alive,
It takes everything you've got
Just to survive,
It will put your wits to the
Ultimate test,
Nature's way of bringing out
Your best,
Can you fell your veins course
With a new life,
Far away from all the worldly greed
And the day to day corporate strife?
I know you can, then you'll do what I want to do
And run with the wolves at midnight
Do the runic dance by the firelight
See what lies beyond my sight
With all my main and might I'm gonna
Heed the call of the wild
Just get away for a couple of days,
And lose yourself in the wooded haze,
Far, far away from the urban craze
Won't you relax yourselves, free your mind
And set your soul ablaze!?!
And run, run, run with the wolves!
Got to get away from
Mechanized society,
Round up the hounds and
Find a brand-new way,
Put me in a deer stand
Just let me get away,
Stick me in the wild
That's just where I'll stay,
And I'll be
Running with the wolves at midnight
Doing the runic dance by the firelight
See what lies beyond my sight
With all my main and might I'm gonna
Heed the call of the wild!
Let's run!
