I'm wearing

Fur pijamas

I ride a

Hot potata

It's tickling my fancy

Speak up I cant hear you

Here on this moutain-top

Oh oh

I got some wild wild life

I got some news to tell ya

Oh oh

About some wild wild life

Here comes the doctor in charge

Oh oh

She's got some wild wild life

Aint that the way you like it?

Oh oh

Livin wild wild life

I wrestle

With your conscience

You wrestle

With your partner

Sittin on a window sill but he

Spends his time behind closed doors

Check out Mr. Businessman

Oh oh

He bought some wild wild life

On the way to the stock exchange

Oh oh

He got some wild wild life

Break it up when he opens the door

Oh oh

He's doin wild wild life

I know that's the way you like it

Oh oh

Livin wild wild life

Peace of mind

It's a piece of cake

Thought control

You get on board anytime you like

Like sittin on pins and needles

Things fall apart, it's scientific

Sleepin on the interstate

Oh oh

Gettin wild wild life

Checkin in checkin out

Oh oh

I got some wild wild life

Spendin all of my money and time

Oh oh

Done too much wild wild life

We wanna go where we go where we go

Oh oh

I doin wild wild

I know it that's how we start

Oh oh

Got some wild wild life

Take a picture here in the daylight

Oh oh

And it's a wild wild life

You've grown so tall, you've grown so fast

Oh oh

Wild wild

I know that's the way you like it

Oh oh

Livin wild wild wild wild, life
