Well
I’ve been wild
I’ve been wild

I’ve been wild
I’ve been free
I’ve been wild
Been fierce

Why would anyone want to tie you down?
You should be free
You should be free
Why would anyone ever want to put you down?
You should be free
You should be free

Housefly, not right
Are you a hornet baby?
Alright?
stingy
No, you’re not
‘Cause I did this too
Not right

Why would anyone want to tie you down?
You should be free
You should be free
Why would anyone ever want to put you down?
You should be free
Let’s get free, go

I see ya
I see ya
I see ya

You’re hungry
Oh, honey
Yeah, you have been bad

Why would anyone want to tie you down?
You should be free
You should be free
Why would anyone want to ever put you down?
You should be free
You should be free

Why would anyone want to tie you down?
You should be free
You should be free
Why would anyone ever want to put you down?
You should be free
You should be free

I’ve been wild
You should be free
Been wild
You should be free

You should be free
You should be free
