The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game

(album: Ella - 1969)

Everyday things change, and the world puts on a new face
Certain things rearrange, and this whole world seems like a new place
Oh, yes, secretly I been trailing you
Like a fox that preys on a rabbit
I had to get you and so I knew
I had to learn your ways and habits
Oo-oo-oo, you were the catch that I was after
When I look up and I was in your arms and I knew I had been captured

What's this whole world coming to
Things just ain't the same
Any time the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah, I had to lay such a tender trap
Hoping you might fall into it
Your love set me like a sudden snap
One kiss and then I knew it
Oo-oo-oo, my plan didn't work out like I thought
'Cause I had laid my trap for you and it seems like I got caught

What's this whole world coming to
Things just ain't the same
Any time the hunter gets captured by the game

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
