Domesticated Blues
I'm tired of being civilized
Walking in line and keeping time
Don't want to work the 9 to 5
Don't want to wear no suit and tie
Tired of being told to wait
And refine my gentlemanly gait
Don't want to sit with folded hands
Setting goals and making plans
I want to live while I'm still young
Lying naked in the sun
I want to trade this silver tongue
For golden fields and sacred hunts
I want to be
Feral and free
Well I'm tired of being civilized
With my nose pressed to the grind
Don't want a grade for what I've learned
Don't want a check for what I've earned
Tired of lying in this bed
With all these troubles in my head
Don't want to do what I've been told
So I can sleep when I get old
I want to die while I'm still young
So lay my body in the sun
Where fertile soil my flesh becomes
At peace with everything I've done
I want to be
Feral and free
Tired of living in one place
Where walls delineate my space
Don't want to save another cent
Don't want to own or pay the rent
I'm tired of drowning in this debt
Just to keep a roof over my head
Don't want to live your American dream
With a picket fence on a quiet street
I want to burn my bridges down
And flee to where I won't be found
I want to pray to the stars and moon
And scour the woods in the afternoon
I want to be
Feral and free
Come with me
Back to the land
Naked in the grass
A fire through the night
And sex at dawn
No words, no time
Just the seasons and the insect songs
I want to kill everything I eat
And thank its soul for the blessing received
I want to build everything I need
And what I carry is all I keep
I want to be born from a river's womb
And left to dissolve in an earthen tomb
I want to be
Feral and free
Walking in line and keeping time
Don't want to work the 9 to 5
Don't want to wear no suit and tie
Tired of being told to wait
And refine my gentlemanly gait
Don't want to sit with folded hands
Setting goals and making plans
I want to live while I'm still young
Lying naked in the sun
I want to trade this silver tongue
For golden fields and sacred hunts
I want to be
Feral and free
Well I'm tired of being civilized
With my nose pressed to the grind
Don't want a grade for what I've learned
Don't want a check for what I've earned
Tired of lying in this bed
With all these troubles in my head
Don't want to do what I've been told
So I can sleep when I get old
I want to die while I'm still young
So lay my body in the sun
Where fertile soil my flesh becomes
At peace with everything I've done
I want to be
Feral and free
Tired of living in one place
Where walls delineate my space
Don't want to save another cent
Don't want to own or pay the rent
I'm tired of drowning in this debt
Just to keep a roof over my head
Don't want to live your American dream
With a picket fence on a quiet street
I want to burn my bridges down
And flee to where I won't be found
I want to pray to the stars and moon
And scour the woods in the afternoon
I want to be
Feral and free
Come with me
Back to the land
Naked in the grass
A fire through the night
And sex at dawn
No words, no time
Just the seasons and the insect songs
I want to kill everything I eat
And thank its soul for the blessing received
I want to build everything I need
And what I carry is all I keep
I want to be born from a river's womb
And left to dissolve in an earthen tomb
I want to be
Feral and free
