Lyrics Tame The Lion - Emitt Rhodes

Tame The Lion

LITTLE CHILDREN LIVE IN HANOI
HOPING THAT THE BOMBS WON’T DROP
THEY NO LONGER CARES WHO’S MASTER
ONLY LET THE BLEEDING STOP
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
IT CAN BE DONE WITH ONE GREAT BLOW
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
HE’S KILLING WHEN WE SAY NO
LITTLE CHILDREN LIVE IN SAIGON
KNEELING DOWN ON SEVERED LIMBS
THEY NO LONGER CARE WHO’S MASTER
ONLY LET THE FIGHTING END
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
IT CAN BE DONE WITH ONE GREAT BLOW
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
HE’S KILLING WHEN WE SAY NO
ARE THOSE THAT DIE
SO SOON FORGOTTEN
THAT WE WON’T MISS ONE MORE
THIS SACRED LIFE, THIS HOLY GARDEN
THIS EVIL ENDLESS WAR
FRIGHTENED MOTHER HOLDS HER CHILDREN
HEAVEN KNOWS IT’S NOT THEIR FAULT
THEY NO LONGER CARE WHO’S MASTER
JUST THE KILLING TO A HAULT
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
IT CAN BE DONE WITH ONE GREAT BLOW
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
HE’S KILLING WHEN WE SAY NO
ARE THOSE THAT DIE
SO SOON FORGOTTEN
THAT WE WON’T MISS ONE MORE
THIS SACRED LIFE, THIS HOLY GARDEN
THIS EVIL ENDLESS WAR
LITTLE CHILDREN LIVE IN HANOI
HOPING THAT THE BOMBS WON’T DROP
THEY NO LONGER CARES WHO’S MASTER
ONLY LET THE BLEEDING STOP
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
IT CAN BE DONE WITH ONE GREAT BLOW
TAME THE LION
NOW HE’S TASTED BLOOD
HE’S KILLING WHEN WE SAY NO
