Belinda Carlisle - Big Scary Animal Lyrics






You keep talkin' - who you trying to kid?
Tryin' to keep your feelings hid
And I'm a prisoner of the past
It's so hard to make a good thing last

We know history
Over and over, will it repeat
Hey you, it's only me
No heart on my sleeve

Here we go, some things are inevitable
Don't we know, it could be so beautiful
It's too real
Situation flammable
Love is, love is, love is....
A big scary animal

Hey girl, be a man
Why'd you let it get out of hand
Hey boy, be a girl
Who wants to live in a man's world?

Come down, feel the ground
We can't keep going 'round and around
I know it's only you
Can I refuse? Can I refuse? Can I refuse?

Hey boy, serves you right
Why'd you have to take that bite
Hey girl, play your game
God knows they're all the same

Hey girl, listen up
No use drink' from that broken cup
Hey man, feel the fear
Someday I'm gonna catch your tears

Here we go, some things are inevitable
Don't we know, it could be so beautiful
It's too real
Situation flammable
Love is, love is, love is....
A big scary animal

    若い頃はハスキーボイスに憧れて大声で歌っていた物ですが、40過ぎた今でもハスキーとは程遠い声ですw

    Holy crap, haven't heard this for years! I remember this one in my last year at high school!

  3. R.... W....

    Belinda is irreplaceable. Grew up with her in her prime. Hope she keeps touring so I get the chance to see her in concert finally.

  4. W.... D....

    1993: Woow, cette musique c’est incroyable!
    2019: Woow, cette musique c’est incroyable!

  5. A.... P....

    I ❤ Belinda

  6. L.... N....

    The UK version (in the background of this music video) was directed by french director Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Be Kind Rewind...)

  7. L.... T....

    Please visit Vancouver | BC; bring as many songs you wish &: play your heart out which I know you always have done & that you still do like in the U.K. right now. Once again, Vancouver | BC is here & waiting for you.

    Классная певица!

  14. S.... W....

    awesome song, awesome album, one of her best! The world missed out on her most solid effort!

    S.... W....

    Real is a truly underrated album

  15. H.... L....

    I've always thought this song was really good, not sure why it was so badly criticized at the time. It has an Edie Brickell and New Bohemians feel to it! I remember people saying she was trying to "grundge" it up and it was too much of a disconnect from her usual material. Isn't an artist supposed to try to reinvent themselves...anyway I personally really liked the Big Scary Animal album still do! Another amazing and beautiful song is, "Here Comes My Baby!"

    H.... L....

    totally agree....one of her best albums ever...

    H.... L....

    @gogosfan1000 :)

    H.... L....

    I've always loved this song. Favourite from the album it was on.

    H.... L....

    As a longtime fan, I actually think this is her best solo album. It's more true to who she really is. I always felt like it was a very intentional departure, and it's really a bummer it didn't do better on the charts. The overly polished stuff she did before and after was still good, but to me, "Real" was Belinda at her most honest. And if you watch any of The Go-Go's reunion live performances, it's obvious that she's always been a punk rocker at heart, so it should have been no surprise to anyone that she would come out with something like this at some point. Bummer we didn't see more of it.

    H.... L....

    She has a more mature voice in this album.Acutally added with more guitars and grunge (which HAS country roots) feelings, when I first heard this song I just said that "Belinda Carlisle becoming Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks" :))))

  16. m.... d....

    Once again ! I have fallen in love with Belinda Carlisle!!

  17. S.... T....

    I'm still in love with her....I'm here!!!!

    You may be interested to know that Belinda is releasing a new album this September. She is very much into yoga, and this album reflects that. It is very very different from her usual stuff, being chant music, but I've heard early release clips and I love it. It should be available on Amazon in the next month or so for pre-order.

    M.... ....

    she's still making and performing!

    M.... ....

    Belinda has never been away from music. She took two years off to have her son 25 years ago. But she has toured almost every year since either solo or GoGo as far as recording after the Real album in 93 she did A woman and a Man 96 2001 god bless the gogos 06 voila (an album you can buy in French or English) 2011 best of “new song called Sun” 2017 Wilder Shores

  22. P.... D....

    M.... ....

    MsFanmail welll said agree 110% even her live shows weather solo or GoGo she was always sexy classy and still is today!

  28. s.... ....

    This song and album are awesome

  29. a.... ....

    OMG I love you Belinda

  30. b.... s....

    cute song !

  31. a.... ....

    This alternative cut kills the original version. Not that the original was anything groundbreaking, but it does have a bit more edge. With this version, you really can't tell that Michel Gondry had anything to do with this video.

  32. J.... ....

    laying on the bike with him riding her is worth it,
    but the rest of it is kinda... eh

  33. m.... t....

    Thanks Joyman 1979!
