Animal Sanctuary Stomping on kittens is easy and it’s fun But it’s not the kind of sport that’s for everyone. The DSPCA will really be after me. Now I’m just looking for somewhere to hide, Somewhere to lay low ‘til this all blows over. Animal Sanctuary. It started with pulling the wings off flies. I’d lock the bee in the bottle until it dies. I’d love to watch it kick it’s legs in the sky. I just thought it was a bit of fun, yeah But now here I am on the run, oh yeah. Animal Sanctuary. I’ve been killing animals since I was a kid And I never thought twice about what I did. Until the day that they all ganged up on me. Now I’m just looking for somewhere to hide, Safe from the animals parked outside The Animal Sanctuary. Taking the candy from the baby was easy But stifling it’s cries was not so easy. Now I’m locked up in the Animal Sanctuary.

Just An Animal Chorus: You’re just an animal, Yeah, an animal, You’re just an animal, An animal is what you are. You’re just an animal, A filthy animal, Animal, An animal is what you are. Ten thousand years of evolution, You think you’re so far removed. Ten thousand years of domestication Shouldn’t hide you from the truth. Chorus: You eat Just like an animal You sleep Just like an animal You breathe Just like an animal An animal is what you are. Chorus: Ten thousand years of evolution, You think you’re so far removed. Ten thousand years of domestication Shouldn’t hide you from the truth. Chorus: You think Just like an animal You stink Just like an animal You breed Just like an animal An animal is what you are. Chorus:

I Remember You I don’t recall much of that night. I hardly remember a thing. I remember Kenny taking a shortcut Home across the Irish sea. We pulled him out onto the beach, Our clothes wet and torn to pieces, Salt water coursed through the wounds, I don’t remember feeling pain but I remember you. I remember Kissing barbie girls goodnight, Wishing I was kissing you, Shaking and a– crying ‘neath the flourescent light But most of all I remember you I don’t recall much of that night. I hardly remember a thing But I remember clearly that look you gave me When you called my name and I remember you.

The Ballad of Simon and Ann-Marie Here we are it’s August the Thirty-First Filled with tension and excitement, we’re fit to burst Grab a few cans and get on the bus Hoping the driver hasn’t got us sussed Yeah it’s here at last and it ain’t no foolin' Everyone’s rocking down to Doolin Get to Galway and stop for a bite And we swear even from here we can hear the bells chime We’ve our best clothes on and I hear someone say ‘I can’t believe that today’s the day’ Yeah it’s here at last and it ain’t no foolin' Everyone’s rocking down to Doolin And there they are, Simon and Ann-Marie All dressed up in their finery And the bridesmaids are looking good to me All dolled up like Xmas trees And we’ve made it to the church, yeah we’re finally here We’ll see smiles and we’ll see tears When Simon first met Ann-Marie Someone said they saw them in a tree And they were K.I.S.S.I.N.G And whatever else comes naturally Now they’re husband and wife, they ain’t foolin’ And it all happened right here in Doolin
