Laura Nyro - Wild World Lyrics

Dinner in the kitchen
Delicious to eat
Thou shall not kill, darlin’
Let wild things run free
I heard
The wolf is gone
I heard
So is the whale of the sea
And who are we?
Where are we goin’
To be so willin’
For the killin’
Of the wild world?

Animals
Trapped by man’s endangered
Soul
By science, sport, and fashion
I heard
The wolf is gone
The baby seal
Sister, whose back
Does that fur belong on?
And who are you?
Where are you goin’
To be so willin’
For the killin’
Of the wild world?

Consumer blindness
I’m givin’ it up
Consider compassion
When you’re livin’ it up
Wild world
Wild world
Oh, it’s all around you
Wild world
