Manfred Mann - Nature of the Beast lyrics

It's the nature of the beast To satisfy his every appetite He doesn't worry 'bout the cost He doesn't worry if it's wrong or right There's no method to his madness Just watch him step up to the firing line And it's all a game It doesn't matter who plays It's just the nature of the beast To jump into the fire Tell me can you feel the heat I see you walking on the wire At the crossroads of the night Too scared of pa**ion but too lonely to learn Nobody wants to lose control Nobody wants to be the careless one Throwin' caution to the wind And makin' love is like trial by fire And it's all a game It doesn't matter who plays It's just the nature of the beast To jump into the fire Tell me can you feel the heat I see you walking on the wire It's just the nature of the beast To jump into the fire Tell me can you feel the heat I see you walking on the wire
