"Little Tiger" lyrics
"Little Tiger"
Don't depend on me kiddo
Bread made of blood comes from a blood red dough
The inoffensive are the ones you can hear
Playing on the radio
Don't ask me how I'll make ends meet,
I don't know
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
Eeny meeny tiny miny catch a little tiger by the toe
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
If every object has its root in a lie
Always check the mirror to make sure you exist
Every time you pass by
The inoffensive are the ones you can hear
Playing on the radio
Calling all out there: Mercy, mercy mercy
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
Shucking in the shadows little tricky dick
Shush him or he'll grow
My mother told me never to let him go
Finally you knew
Finally you knew
What you had to do
And you did it right there and then
Don't depend on me kiddo
Don't hang my picture on your rear-view mirror
When you're you're trying to go
The inoffensive are the ones you can hear
Playing on the radio
We'll come at them like a storm
Leaving them with a ratty ear-o
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
All you own you owe to someone you don't know
Eeny meeny tiny miny catch a little tiger by the toe
If you ever hear him holler you will have to let him go

It was a welcome change from the sight of you hanging

St. Vincent - "Cheerleader" I've had good times
With some bad guys
I've told whole lies
With a half smile
Held your bare bones
With my clothes on
I've thrown rocks
Then hid both my arms

Man Man - "Van Helsing Boombox" Only time will tell if I'll allow
The scenery around to eat me alive
I want to sleep for weeks like a dog at her feet
Even though I know it won't work out in the long run
So I burn down the walls,...
Andrew Bird - "Are You Serious" Used to have just one foot out the door
Yeah, I always wanted more
I always was the one
You thought would never marry
Used to be willfully obtuse

Semantics like a noose

Sylvan Esso - "Ferris Wheel" August in the heat
Sweaty in the street
Tilt-a-whirling
I can feel your eyes
Find me in the crowd
Think you like me now
I've been seeing you everyday
On my block in your white tee
You're looking...
