Tiger

Tiger - Noel Paul Stookey

Oh boy another gig with the tiger

Another pig in the fire

And the flames keep getting higher

There are causes I have lost myself within

And some without

And every man I thought he knew

What I should be about

But I put that all behind

When I asked the son to shine into my life

Oh no another go at the circus

Another wheel out of focus

And I think I found the joke is on me

Assuming your salvation can be such a dangerous lie

But before you get the license honey

First you gotta learn how to drive

I'm feeling so much wiser

Since the supervisor came into my life

Oh wow another plow in the ocean

Another day of devotion

And I'm living in slow motion

All of my sins 'been forgiven

Can't you see by the way that I've been living

I'm feeling so much better

Since he brought the holy letter into my life
