Wild Man (Radio Edit)
Kate Bush · Other Songs - Kate Bush
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.
