waltari - the beginning song lyrics

island in the city, music in the air
waiting for the feeling, and surprise: it's right there!

i dressed up in a cloth of lion
i wanted to avoid growing thin, so
that i couldn't blame myself not running faster

i took my courage, i felt so hungry
and hunger is a greed that makes you achieve
something more than you are in now

[chorus i:]
i want my life, you'd better beware of my mind
but you are here and this is a hungry lion dance
i wanna hit and run and you'd better beware of my kind
'coz you're bit green and i know well what i've come here to take

i saw a big field
i saw the moonshine
i saw the black figures in horizon
don't you be afraid of me babe
i'm faster than your fright

you shiny angel, wearing crystals
you will recognize the rebel without a pause
still i'll wait, on the final scene before the edge

[chorus 2:]
i want your love, you'd better beware of my life
'coz you are near and this is a hungry lion dance
i wanna hit and run without an easy way
i'm hungry for you love and i really don't like to pass you

island in the city, music in the air
waiting for the feeling, and surprise: it's right there!

[chorus 3:]
i want your love you'd better beware of my mind
'coz you're so green and i know well where i'm aiming to
i wanna split and run without an easy way
but still you are here and i really don't like to slip you through
