about

After over a year in lockdown, I craved being in a sweaty, crowded club (for the first time in my life). "Animal’s Awake" is a low-key, epic fantasy about partying post-lockdown. Who else is ready to bask in freedom, let out some pent-up energy and see where the night takes us?

Beautiful artwork by POI and Keely

lyrics

made it on the guest list
like a model munching bread sticks
yuh, the music was exquisite
i had 2 shots so i risked it

took my mask off (very) politely
the bouncer asked me for my I.D.
damn, i’m always getting carded
fully charged, it’s time to party

animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage
animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage

i just wanna take my clothes off
dance around and drink a soda
oops, i guess that got uploaded
get it started, what’s the hold up?

shut your mouth and keep on moving
ooh, i like it, how you do it
come and give me an excuse to
scream your name into the cushion

animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage
animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage


scuffed up my Balencies
climbing over fences
now’s the time to flex these
double Fs like Fendi
meep-meep in the back in 20

never been more ready
to receive your blessing
Jupiter’s ascending
keep it nice and steady
don’t stop until we get too sweaty

animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage
animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage

animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage
animal’s awake
awake and out of the cage

AIKO TOMI Tokyo, Japan

AIKO TOMI 富愛子, translates to "Child of Love and Abundance" in Japanese.

An energetic and dynamic live performer, AIKO TOMI's shows have been called "unhinged and beautiful". ... more
