Paroles de Tigers Have Spoken

They shot the tiger on his chain In a field behind the cages He walked in circles 'til he was crazy And he lived that way forever And he lived that way beside them, Separate from the other tigers He did not know another tiger They shot the tiger on his chain In a field behind the cages He walked in circles 'til he was crazy And he lived that way forever And he lived that way forever Just as long as he could remember If he'd wanted to remember It was the last time he had felt alive When he saw that brown-haired lady She fed him with a bottle as a baby And he recalled her face and smile They shot that tiger on his chain They shot the tiger on his chain They shot the tiger on his chain They shot the tiger on his chain They shot the tiger on his chain
