Send Away The Tigers Lyrics

Send Away The Tigers lyrics

There's no hope in the colonies

So catch yourself a lifeline

Things have gone wrong too many times

So catch yourself a slow boat to China



Fixing some holes from the tigers claws

All your tears will be trembling

Stick those teeth into my back

Seasonal beasts keep them at bay



Can't something go right

Little things change people's lives

Hostile words won't fill your eyes

Same noise left too destroy



Loathsome smile head full of forever's

Will tomorrow bring some perfection?

The zoos been overrun in Baghdad

Tiger's claws still in my back



So send away the tigers

Because we're lonely and we're desperate

So send away the tigers

Because they're creeping up and dangerous



I've got problems, I've got too many of them

Throw away your yesterdays, I did it all for you

Blank horizons and hotels rooms

Cheap Whiskey and god-awful truths

Look at me I'm honest and free, I was born to underachieve



So send away the tigers

Because we're lonely and we're desperate

So send away the tigers

Because they're creeping up and dangerous



So send away the tigers

Because we're lonely and we're desperate

So send away the tigers

Because they're creeping up and dangerous
