Go back into the darkness
Like the Wild Thing that you are
You're teeth are far too sharp, my love
I'm afraid you'll go too far

I'm sure you liked the shelter
I gave so willingly
But wild, wild things can turn on you
And you've got to set them free

(Chorus)
Set them free, no matter what they say
Set them free, for they live another way
It's the Spirit of the Wild Things
That you love so much to see

But wild, wild things can turn on you
And you've got to set them free
Oh, you've got to set them free

Oh oh oh oh oh ah ah ah ha na na na

Set them free
Set them free
Set them free

Set them free
