Wild and Untamed Thing is the last song of the Floor Show. It is technically the film's Sixteenth song, featured directly after Fanfare/Don't Dream It, Be It. It is sung by Frank'n'Furter with a chorus of Brad, Janet, Rocky and Columbia. The last verse of the song is sung by Riff Raff, declaring his revolt against Frank and his taking of authority of the Transylvanian's House.

Origin

The song was written by Richard O'Brien in the late 60's early 70's. It was not written with the intention of being in the stage play. The song's name refers to how much of a party animal the singer is. Although the song has a different title, it contains the lyrics of the main song Rose Tint My World.

Progression

The song features the exact same chord progression as the start of Rose Tint My World as well as the Brad and Janet sections. It leads directly into the 3rd last song of the soundtrack, I'm Going Home and marks the end of the Floor Show.
