- Bad Boys Running Wild Lyrics / with translationsOut in the streets
The dogs are on the run
The cats are all in heat
Out in the streets
Snakes are all around you
Dirty rats are on their way
They control you and they make you play.
Out in the night
Glaring eyes in darkness
Tigers wanna fight
Out in the night
Spiders all around you
Spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away.
Bad boys running wild!
If you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild!
And you better get out of their way.
Out in the streets
The dogs are on the run
The cats are all in heat
Out in the night
Spiders all around you
Spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away.
Bad boys running wild!
If you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild!
And you better get out of their way
Bad boys running wild!
If you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild!
And you better get out of their way
Get out of their way.
The dogs are on the run
The cats are all in heat
Out in the streets
Snakes are all around you
Dirty rats are on their way
They control you and they make you play.
Out in the night
Glaring eyes in darkness
Tigers wanna fight
Out in the night
Spiders all around you
Spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away.
Bad boys running wild!
If you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild!
And you better get out of their way.
The dogs are on the run
The cats are all in heat
Out in the night
Spiders all around you
Spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away.
Bad boys running wild!
If you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild!
And you better get out of their way
Bad boys running wild!
If you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild!
And you better get out of their way
Get out of their way.
