Animal Kingdom is a 2010 Australian crime drama written and directed by David Michôd, and starring Ben Mendelsohn, Joel Edgerton, Guy Pearce, Luke Ford, Sullivan Stapleton, Jacki Weaver and James Frecheville. Michôd's script was inspired by the Pettingill family of Melbourne, Australia, who in 1988 saw the acquittal of Trevor Pettingill in the murder of two Victoria police officers. The film received several awards and nominations with Weaver receiving multiple awards for her performance, including an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
After his mother dies from an overdose of heroin, 17-year-old Joshua 'J' Cody asks his estranged grandmother, Janine 'Smurf' Cody, for advice about what he should do. She invites him to move in with her, and he accepts. She is the matriarch of a notorious Melbourne crime family, further consisting of her three sons. Her eldest son is an armed robber named Andrew 'Pope' Cody, and is in hiding from a group of renegade detectives. The middle brother, Craig, is a successful but volatile drug dealer, and youngest brother Darren follows the lead of his older brothers.

Verse:
The light in your eyes
Well it's pulling me in
Yeah, it's pulling me in
A heart that's still speeding up
And it's coming again
Yeah it's coming again
How did it happen?
How did it come to this?
Taking me over
Chorus:
It only comes in waves
And then it goes away
Well it must be chemical
Well it must be chemical
Well it must be chemical
Chemical
Chemical
Verse:
The light in your eyes
Well it's pulling me in
And it's pulling me in
Push your arms; lift them up
And it's coming again
Yeah, it's coming again
How did it happen?
How did it come to this?
Taking me over
Chorus:
It only comes in waves
And then it goes away
Well it must be chemical
Well it must be chemical
Well it must be chemical

It's like coming up for air
Breathe it in again
It only comes in waves
And then it goes away
Well it must be chemical
Well it must be chemical
Well it must be chemical
Chemical
Chemical
Yeah it must be chemical
