Horace Silver - What Kind of Animal Am I
Angry as a lion, gentle as a lamb
Do I really know just what I am?
★ Chorus ★
For the caterpillar changes into a butterfly
What kind of animal am I?
★ Verse 2 ★
Vicious as a tiger, blind just like a bat
Do I really know just where it's at?
★ Chorus ★
For the caterpillar changes into a butterfly
What kind of animal am I?
★ Bridge ★
I'm changing my vibrations
To keep my thoughts in line
And make a conscious effort
To harmonize my mind
★ Verse 3 ★
Eager as a beaver, busy as a bee
Time will not permit hatred in me
★ Chorus ★
For the caterpillar changes into a butterfly
What kind of animal am I?
★ Instrumental Break ★
★ Verse 4 ★
I am prouder than a peacock, stubborn as a mule
Is it not myself I try to fool?
★ Chorus ★
For the caterpillar changes into a butterfly
What kind of animal am I?
★ Verse 5 ★
I'm as jealous as a rooster, greedy as a hog
Will I evеr lift my mental fog?
★ Chorus ★
For the caterpillar changеs into a butterfly
What kind of animal am I?
★ Bridge ★
I'm changing my vibrations
To keep my thoughts in line
And make a conscious effort
To harmonize my mind
★ Verse 6 ★
I'm freer than a bluebird, happy as a lark
I can lift my mind out of the dark
★ Chorus ★
For the caterpillar changes into a butterfly
What kind of animal am I?
