You  sit on her couch,
 That's half made from a bath,
 You said you seen one like it,
 In Breakfast At Tiffany's,
 And she hasn't named her cat,
 And you think she's cute like that,
 And it reminds you of that scene,
 In Breakfast At Tiffany's
 And is she Holly Golightly,
 Or is she Lula Mae,
 Yeh, You don't really know,
 And she can't really say,
 Yeh she's a nineteen fifties girl,
 But you're a wannabe fifties boy,
 And I'm sorry to say to you,
 You're just a, a toy to her.
 Cause ya can't cage a wild thing
 No ya can't  cage a wild thing, No,
 And the moment  ya let her go,
 Is the moment  you'll really know,
 That you  can't cage a wild thing. No.
You  could write a novella about that girl,
 But it won't be worth your while,
 Give her fifty for the powder room,
 And all you'll get is a smile,
 So let's go to Joe Bell's bar,
 And drink a bottle of whiskey,
 And forget about that girl,
 And her pretty misery,
 Cause I've read Capote's book,
 And it ain't got a Hollywood ending,
 So can we stop pretending,
 That this is the movie,
 Cause you will end up like that cat,
 Left in Spanish Harlem,
 waiting for the love of his  life to come running back,
 Cause ya can't cage a wild thing
 No ya can't  cage a wild thing, No,
 And the moment  ya let her go,
 Is the moment  you'll really know,
 That you  can't cage a wild thing. No.
We're  all waiting  for the love of  our lives to come running  back,
Yeh,  We're all  waiting for the love  of our lives to come running  back
Yeh  We're all  waiting for the love  of our lives to come running  back
Yeh,  We're all  waiting for the love  of our lives to come running  back
