Peter Gabriel - Animal Magic lyrics

[Verse 1] What did you mean when you opened your mouth and let all our secrets out? You told him what I was about, my cover was completely blown I tell you darling, I've been watching the war films And I've got a few ideas of my own Because after the film had ended, the call for recruits was shown [Chorus] And I'll be joining the professionals, I want to be a man With all that animal magic I'll do anything you can I'm joining the professionals because I want to be a man Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear Join the professionals and learn to fight! [Verse 2] I bet the two of you still laugh at me for being timid as a lamb That may be the way I look, but it's no longer what I am I've been across to Northern Ireland And I came home with a new kind of charge I learned how to hunt in the night, I learned about camouflage [Chorus] I've been joining the professionals, and now that I'm a man With all that animal magic I'll match anything you can I'm joining the professionals, this time I understand Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear Join the professionals and learn to fight!
