I didn't know what to do, I grabbed the tiger by the tail

I grabbed the tiger by the tail, I grabbed the tiger by the tail

People said that you must be joking, you let emotions run away with you
I realized a little too late, I bit off more than I could chew

 Chorus:
I grabbed the tiger by the tail, I grabbed the tiger by the tail
Sometimes you grip it right and sometimes you fail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail

(Solo)

I grabbed the tiger by the tail, I grabbed the tiger by the tail

At times life can be so enlightning, but it can turn on you
Lately it gets so complicated that I don't know what the tiger will do

chorus repeats out
