Peter Gabriel - Animal Magic

What did you mean when you opened your mouth and let all our secrets out? You told him what I was about, my cover was completely blown. I tell you darling, I've been watching the war films And I've got a few ideas of my own, 'cos after the film had ended, the call for recruits was shown, And I'll be joining the professionals, I want to be a man. With all that animal magic I'll do anything you can. I'm joining the professionals 'cos I want to be a man, Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear... Join the professionals and learn to fight! I bet the two of you still laugh at me for being timid as a lamb; That may be the way I look, but it's no longer what I am. I've been across to Northern Ireland, And I came home with a new kind of charge: I learned how to hunt in the night, I learned about camouflage. I've been joining the professionals, and now that I'm a man With all that animal magic I'll match anything you can. I'm joining the professionals, this time I understand, Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear... Join the professionals and learn to fight!
