Inner Man - Adrian Belew

My inner man is an animal

He comes to me in a rage

He’ll probably cause me trouble

If I ever let him out of his cage

He’s angry about everything

He speaks before he thinks

My inner man is an animal

My inner man (inner man) is an animal

He challenges and he ravages

Anyone who stands in his way

And he leaves me with the damages

And apologies I have to make

Well he’ll argue over anything

He speaks before he thinks

My inner man is an animal

My inner man (inner man) is an animal

Well here he comes

He’s like a time bomb

He’s like a gun

He’s aimed at anyone

Self-righteous and full of pride

He’s got it all bottled up inside

Well here he comes

He’s like a time bomb

He’s like a gun

He’s aimed at anyone

He’s self-righteous and full of pride

He’s got it all bottled up inside

He’s just an animal

Some people are full of peace

Some people are never pleased

But I’ve seen how I can be

And I know underneath I’m only a beast

My inner man
