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