Red Hot Chili Peppers - Animal Bar Lyrics
Lyrics Translation
The lyrics of "Animal Bar" seem to explore the idea of escapism and the human need for release or freedom, symbolized by the "animal" and the "bar." It may be a metaphor for a place where people go to let loose, shedding societal norms and embracing a more primal side of themselves. The song speaks to both the allure and the potential danger of seeking out wild, uninhibited experiences in an attempt to find freedom or identity.
Song lyrics
Never 21 when everyone's a sailor
Coming up strong at the animal bar
Ever loving mug of Mr. Norman Mailer
Turn another page at the animal bar
And it won't be long
No it won't be long
No it won't be long
Because it can't be long
I I I the cry of isolation
I I I the high of meditation
I I I for sweet precipitation
I I I the high of deprivation
And it won't be long
No it won't be long
No it won't be long
Because it can't be long
Rain on my frustration
Stake my claim now break this
Wash me down my station
Makes more rain forsaken
In between the sky and every piece of the earth
(1, 2, 3, let's break this)
Runnin' through the mud
I gotta feeling of worth
(1, 2, 3, forsake this)
All aboard the ship
Cause you're gonna need an ark
When the wet comes down
You'll be swimming like a shark
Mopping up the pain and
I'm a little older
Right as rain
At the animal bar
And it won't be long
No it won't be long
No it won't be long
Because it can't be long
I I I the cry of isolation
I I I the high of meditation
I I I for sweet precipitation
I I I the high of deprivation
And it won't be long
No it won't be long
No it won't be long
Because it can't be long
Rain on my frustration
Stake my claim now break this
Wash me down my station
Makes more rain forsaken
In between the sky and every piece of the earth
(1, 2, 3, let's break this)
Runnin' through the mud
I gotta feeling of worth
(1, 2, 3, forsake this)
Raindrops will fall from the sky
Stealing their shape from your eye
Now we can all get some sleep
The water, the water, the water
Saving us from the heat
Some things will die in their place
Others will leave little trace
Fire will come find its day
The water, the water, the water
Washing it all away
Rain on my frustration
Stake my claim now break this
Wash me down my station
Makes more rain forsaken
In between the sky and every piece of the earth
(1, 2, 3, let's break this)
In between the sky and every piece of the earth
(1, 2, 3, forsake this)
In between the sky and every piece of the earth
(1, 2, 3, forsake this)
In between the sky and every piece of the earth
(1, 2, 3, forsake this)
