On my hopeless plight
Every disc, a poker chip
(You can't tame the tiger)
Fireworks in the sky
The moon shed light
I'm so sick of this game
I watched the stars chuck down their spears
And I'm taming the tiger
(You can't tame the tiger)
Tiger, tiger burning bright
As the radio blared so bland
One false move and you're a goner
The whole thing's gotten boring
Is when it's purring at your side"
And I'm taming the tiger
Up and down the dial
It's hip, it's hot life's too short
Tiger, tiger burning bright
Big dipper hanging there
Genuine junk food for juveniles
Tiger, tiger burning bright
(Fight to the light, fight to the light)
(Boring)
Tiger burning bright
From the hoods in the hood
Tiger, tiger burning bright
And I'm taming the tiger
Tiger, tiger burning bright
Tiger, tiger burning bright
Nice, kitty kitty
Mercenary style
Nice, kitty kitty
Nice, kitty kitty
Oh, be nice, kitty kitty
Sophia says "It's hard to catch
(You can't tame the tiger)
(Boring)
Formula music, girly guile
(Boring, boring)
And a plane went blinking by
Like fireworks in the sky
Boring, the old man is snoring
And the whiny white kids
(You can't tame the tiger)
Boring, the old man is snoring
Every song just a one night stand
Tiger, tiger burning bright
The old man is snoring
And harder still to ride
The time to watch the beast the best
And I thought of Anna, wild and dear
Over the rented car, over the rented car
In the forest of the night
Nice, kitty, kitty, tiger
I'm a runaway from the record biz
Purring at your side, accolades and honors
