ANIMALIZE (1984)

LONELY IS THE HUNTER - Gene Simmons

[Verse]
My eggs in one basket, but she threw me a bone
She was dealt a full deck, but she likes to live alone
Ain't just talkin' to myself, need a reason to stop (oh yeah)
With a flower in her teeth, she drained the last drop
I said, "girls love money like bees the honey"

[Chorus]
But lonely is the hunter
You're my one and only
And lonely is the hunter

[Verse]
Asked her for a refill, sweat flew off my face (oh yeah)
She's a legendary figure, kept me in the cage (whoo)
She's a torture chamber, when I seduced her in my bed (ooh yeah)
She gave a cold reading, success went to her head

In the heat of the battle
The heart cannot rule

But lonely (I'm such a fool) is the hunter
You're my one and only
And lonely is the hunter
Lonely is the hunter (yeah)
You're my one and only
And lonely is the hunter

[Solo]

Lonely is the hunter
You're my one and only
And lonely is the hunter
Lonely is the hunter
You're my one and only
And lonely is the hunter
