W.A.S.P. - Wild child - About the song


"Wild Child" is a single by W.A.S.P., an American heavy metal band. It was written by Blackie Lawless and Chris Holmes and was released as the third single from their second studio album The Last Command. On the UK Singles Chart, the song reached number 71.


The music video starts off with vocalist Blackie Lawless riding a motorcycle on a desert highway. He then spots a woman wearing a red jumpsuit standing on a cliff-edge who disappears as soon as he sees her. The video then cuts to the band performing the song on the top of a cliff and concludes with Lawless encountering the woman again at nightfall, who again fades into thin air upon being seen by him. Lawless then rides his motorcycle through the path of her disappearance, leaving a trail of flames behind him.


Wild child - Lyrics


I ride, I ride the winds that bring the rain A creature of love and I can't be tamed I want you, cause I'm gonna take your love from him And I'll touch your face and hot burning skin No, he'll never ever touch you like I do So look in my eyes and burn alive the truth I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I want you Tell me, tell me the lies you're telling him when you Run away 'cause I wanna know Cause I, I'm sure it's killing him to find That you run to me when he lets you go 'Cause I'm burning, burning, burning up with fire So - come turn me on and turn the flames up higher I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me Cause I want what you do I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me Cause I want what you do I want you A naked heat machine, I want your love When the moons arise we'll feel just what it does I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I want you
