Taming The Tiger — текст песни (Joni Mitchell)





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

Im a runaway from the record biz

From the hoods in the hood and the whiny white kids

Boring!

The old man is snoring

And Im taming the tiger

(you cant tame the tiger)

Tiger, tiger burning bright

Nice, kitty kitty

Tiger, tiger burning bright



Sophia says "its hard to catch

And harder still to ride

The time to watch the beast the best

Is when its purring at your side"

Purring at your side

Accolades and honors

One false move and youre a goner

Boring!

The old man is snoring

And Im taming the tiger

(you cant 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 junkfood 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

Im so sick of this game

Its hip, its hot

Lifes too short, the whole things gotten

Boring!

The old man is snoring

And Im taming the tiger

(you cant tame the tiger)

Tiger, tiger burning bright

Nice, kitty kitty

(boring!)

Tiger, tiger burning bright

(you cant 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
