Lion's Teeth |
| The king of the jungle |
| Was asleep in his car |
| When your chances fall in your lap like that |
| You’ve got to recognize them for what they really are |
| Nobody in this house |
| Wants to own up to the truth |
| I crawl in shotgun and reach into his mouth |
| And grab hold of one long, sharp tooth |
| And hold on For dear life, I hold on Well, of course he wakes up His paw hits the horn |
| I am going to regret |
| The day that I was born |
| And then Mom rushes out to the driveway |
| My sister too |
| Everyone’s screaming |
| I am dreaming of you |
| I hold on For dear life, I hold on And my arms get sore |
| And my palms start to sweat |
| And the tears roll down my face |
| 'Till my cheeks are hot and red and soaking wet |
| In come the cops |
| They blowtorch the doors |
| I start wailing |
| The lion roars |
| There’s no good way to end this |
| Anyone can see |
| There’s this great big you |
| And little old me And we hold on For dear life, we hold on We hold on |
