"The Tiger And The Dolphin" lyrics - ALICE PHOEBE LOU
You're a tiger, walking through worlds
Of burning fire
But they put you in a zoo
In your dreams you were flying through the trees
But when you woke up
You were behind a lock and key
So you looked up into the faces of the people staring at you
You said, what the fuck are you looking at? I'm a tiger
This is no place for my fire, you're a liar
If you think you care about me
So you went to dreamland
More and more often 'cause in dreamland
You were the king of the jungle
But in that fucking cage
You were angered and afraid
That you'd never ever see the day that you could run away
[Chorus 1:]
You said, who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo?
I'm a tiger with the fire and I'll bite you in your face
Who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo?
I'm a tiger with the fire and I'll bite you in your face
You're a dolphin, queen of the ocean
Mind of mystery, a soul that is free
Then one day while you were at play they took you
And put you far far away
Where they train you
For people's entertainment
And you say, I hope you are entertained by my containment
In your dreams you are flying through the sea
But when you woke up
You were behind a lock and key
[Chorus 2:]
You say, why am I here listening to you cheers?
I'm a dolphin from the ocean
And that's where I'm meant to be
Why am I here listening to your cheers?
I'm a dolphin from the ocean
You should be entertaining me
