Kate Bush Wild Man lyrics

They call you an animal
The Kangchenjunga Demon, Wild Man, Metoh-Kangmi
Lying in my tent, I can hear your cry echoing
'Round the mountainside, you sound lonely

While crossing the Lhakpa-La
Something jumped down from the rocks
In the remote Garo Hills by Dipu Marak
We found footprints in the snow

The schoolmaster of Darjeeling
Said he saw you by the Tengboche Monastery
You were playing in the snow
You were banging on the doors

You got up on the roof, roof of the world
You were pulling up the rhodedendrons
Loping down the mountain
They want to know you

They will hunt you down, then they will kill you
Run away, run away, run away


While crossing the Lhakpa-La
Something jumped down from the rocks
In the remote Garo Hills by Dipu Marak
We found footprints in the snow

We found your footprints in the snow
We brushed them all away

From the Sherpas of Annapurna
To the Rinpoche of Qinghai
Shepherds from Mount Kailash
To Himachal Pradesh found, footprints in the snow

You're not a langur monkey, nor a big brown bear, you're the Wild Man
They say they saw you drowned near the Rongbuk Glacier
They want to hunt you down, you're not an animal
The Lamas say you're not an animal
