(Springfield)

What a shock it was so surprising

You looked so small and frail

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



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

I grabbed the tiger by the tail

I grabbed the tiger by the tail



At times life can be so enlightening

But it can turn on you

Lately it gets so complicated

I don't know what the tiger will do



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

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
