Lyrics

[Intro]
Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby, I'm
[Verse 1]
So what you trying to do to me
It's like we can't stop, we're enemies
But we get along when I'm inside you, hey
You're like a drug that's killing me
I cut you out entirely
But I get so high when I'm inside you
[PreChorus]
Yeah, you can start over, you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down, rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no
Oh
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby, I'm
[Verse 2]
So if I run, it's not enough
You're still in my head, forever stuck
So you can do what you wanna do, hey
I love your lies, I'll eat 'em up
But don't deny the animal
That comes alive when I'm inside you
[PreChorus]
Yeah, you can start over, you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no
Oh
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby, I'm
[Verse 3]
Don't tell no lie, lie-lie-lie
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
No, girl don't lie, lie-lie-lie
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny (You can't deny)
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo
Whoa
Whoa
[Bridge]
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Just like animals (Yeah)
Animals (Yeah)
Like animals-mals (Yeah)
Awooo
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles (For miles)
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby, I'm
[Outro]
Don't tell no lie, lie-lie-lie
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
No, girl don't lie, lie-lie-lie (No, girl don't lie)
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny (You can't deny)
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
