If I was an animal I would have sharp claws

To crawl my way outta here

If I was an animal I would have big long ears

To hear people sneaking up behind me

If I was an animal I would have the meanest eyes

To scare away anyone who gets near me

If I was an animal I would slither around everyone's legs

To sneak away

If I was an animal I would be strong

To fight off all these demons

If I was an animal you would be my prey

To have you forever

If I was an animal I would live only a day

To pass by everyone unnoticed

If I was an animal I would have invisible skin

To be nobody around everybody

Did I get lost?

Did I walk too far away from home?

But now everyone has a different face

And different voices
