Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent from miles
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Baby I'm…
So what you trying to do to me
It's like we can't stop, we're enemies
But we get along when I'm inside you
You're like a drug that's killing me
I cut you out entirely
But I get so high when I'm inside you
Yeah you can start over, you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down, rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me, but no
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent from miles
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Baby I'm…
So if I run, it's not enough
You're still in my head, forever stuck
So you can do what you wanna do
I love your lies, I'll eat ‘em up
But don't deny the animal
That comes alive when I'm inside you
Yeah you can start over, you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down, rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me, but no
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent from miles
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Baby I'm…
Don't tell no lie lie lie lie
You can't deny ny ny ny
That beast inside side side side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
No girl don't lie lie lie lie
You can't deny ny ny ny
That beast inside side side side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo… woahh… woahh
Yeahh… yeahh… yeahh
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent from miles
Just like animals, animals, like animals
Baby I'm…
Don't tell no lie lie lie lie
You can't deny ny ny ny
That beast inside side side side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
No girl don't lie lie lie lie
You can't deny ny ny ny
That beast inside side side side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
