DOORS

- Wild Child Lyrics

Alright!

Wild child full of grace
Savior of the human race
Your cool face

Natural child, terrible child
Not your mother's or your father's child
You're our child, screamin' wild

An ancient rulage of grains
And the trees of the night
Ha, ha, ha, ha

With hunger at her heels, freedom in her eyes
She dances on her knees, pirate prince at her side
Stirrin' into a hollow idol's eyes

Wild child full of grace
Savior of the human race
Your cool face

Your cool face
Your cool face
Do you remember when we were in Africa?

What is the meaning behind Wild Child lyrics?


When we think about what all of this might truly mean, the Doors' song 'Wild Child' has been interpreted as the story of a person who is very liberated and wild and at the same time a rebel that goes against the herd. One might even say that the lyrics are portraying a kind of messiah who is freeing people by their very nature and fighting against the constraints through the use of a 'pirate prince' and dancing along with 'hunger at her heels' analogies. The terms 'wild child' and 'savior of the human race' point at the same idea of individuality and the power of loving oneself however potentially risky it may be since it is often associated with the position of the outsider. The song lyrics are mainly focusing on the aspects of freedom, inspiration, empowerment, adventure, and hope. The song however implies the opposite of each mentioned aspect, hence presenting freedom and individuality, rebellion and nonconformity, as well as nostalgia and memory with more depth. Access to the lyrics might not be appropriate for younger kids due to parental guidance as wildness and freedom themes run through the song. There isn't any profanity or graphic representations, but the term 'lunatic' along with 'messiah' might need some explaining for the younger population.
