Tiger Shark
You're not the boy who didn't belong
In the schoolyard world
You don't get pushed around anymore and you never will
No more Mr Nice guy, gotta be tough
In this cruel, hard world
And you're not gonna cry the next time you watch notting hill
It's time to wake up boy
Put your armour on
That pathetic little pussy with the ring is gone
You're a tiger, let me hear you roar!
You're a shark, hunting in the shallows by the shore
Let me see your claws, let me see your teeth
Let your fin emerge from the depths beneath
Let me see you stalk your prey in the dark
Like a tiger, or a shark, or a tiger shark
I'm not the bullied brown boy in his all white school
I'm not the kid who felt too white when he moved to Queens
Goodbye Mr. Piano Tie cause you thought Billy Joel was cool
You're a man who will become a man of means
You're an alpha dog, you're the fighting champ
Not the kid who kept crying at the computer camp!
For someone soft and sensitive, this world is less than fair
You gotta pay to play, you gotta make your way
Like Jane fuckin' Eyre!
I'm a tiger
Tiger, let me hear your roar
Hear me roar
You're a shark
Oh yeah more ancient than a dinosaur
Flash your cool ID
And my corporate suit
And use your electromagnetic snoot
To make a ton of dough
Then bro, just wait
A female tiger shark might wanna mate, with you
In the schoolyard world
You don't get pushed around anymore and you never will
No more Mr Nice guy, gotta be tough
In this cruel, hard world
And you're not gonna cry the next time you watch notting hill
It's time to wake up boy
Put your armour on
That pathetic little pussy with the ring is gone
You're a tiger, let me hear you roar!
You're a shark, hunting in the shallows by the shore
Let me see your claws, let me see your teeth
Let your fin emerge from the depths beneath
Let me see you stalk your prey in the dark
Like a tiger, or a shark, or a tiger shark
I'm not the bullied brown boy in his all white school
I'm not the kid who felt too white when he moved to Queens
Goodbye Mr. Piano Tie cause you thought Billy Joel was cool
You're a man who will become a man of means
You're an alpha dog, you're the fighting champ
Not the kid who kept crying at the computer camp!
For someone soft and sensitive, this world is less than fair
You gotta pay to play, you gotta make your way
Like Jane fuckin' Eyre!
I'm a tiger
Tiger, let me hear your roar
Hear me roar
You're a shark
Oh yeah more ancient than a dinosaur
Flash your cool ID
And my corporate suit
And use your electromagnetic snoot
To make a ton of dough
Then bro, just wait
A female tiger shark might wanna mate, with you
