lyrics

we're not gonna join
half to be a dupe
don't wanna be a member of the sub-group
if you're on the doorstep, we're not taking orders
when it's what you are you never need to reinforce it
it's much more fun if you are courageous
leave the false security to the painless
leave the revelations to the blameless
confusion to the cowards who would try to tame us

wild hearts don't belong
wild hearts carry on

don't need another gift or was it an offer
the latest spiritual discount shopper
we're happy to leave the earth to the meek
but for now we're gonna sing and dance and speak
we're gonna get down
gonna take the risk
gonna smolder not just exist
leave the revelations to the blameless
confusion to the cowards who would try to tame us

wild hearts don't belong
wild hearts carry on

you're a savage
you're a beast
you're hairy and cuddly at least
get over the primal fear
we are going further into the frontier
have you seen the members of the herd
in a pretty row looking absurd
leave the revelations to the blameless
confusion to the cowards who would try to tame us

wild hearts don't belong
wild hearts carry on
