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
