"I'm A Nocturnal Animal" lyrics
Mr. Greg & Cass McCombs Lyrics
"I'm A Nocturnal Animal"
I'm a nocturnal animal
I sleep all day
At night I take flight
To hunt for prey
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Yeah, I make that sound
And I can spin my head
Nearly all the way around
O-W-L
An owl, that's me
You might find me in a barn
Or perched in a tree
Barn, horned, snowy, elf
Yes, we're birds of a feather
We fly silently
And our brains are clever
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Yeah, I make that sound
And I eat little critters
Off the forest ground
I've got super night vision
When the sky goes black
To help locate my
Midnight snack
Those little birdies and rats
Find it a challenge
To break free from
The clasp of my talons
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Are the words that I speak
Now read my lips
I mean, read my beak
Here's the story of my diet
This is how I tell it
You can see what I've eaten
In my owl pellet
The things I can't digest
On my dinner plate
Are the contents of the pellets
I regurgitate
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Yeah, I make that sound
Owl pellets are where
The fur and bones are found
Of the prey that I caught
On the forest floor
So watch out little rodents
Cause I'm coming for more
I'm a nocturnal animal
I sleep all day
At night I take flight
To hunt for prey
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Hoot hoot hoot hoot
Hoot hoot

With this lonely game we play?
Looking for the words to say
Searching but not finding
Understanding anywhere
We're lost in this masquerade
Both afraid to say we're just too far...
