Here There Be Tigers
Craig Cardiff Lyrics
Here there be tigers, tigers be here
That was the only thing between us
That was the only thing we never hear
Somewhere up the coast, far from ancient states
I heard you say the wave was heavy and weighed you down
As weight tends to do, the way it got to you
You got off watching Hastings St and Hastings got you back
When you were sending all your postcards
To lay a track back home?
Here there be tigers, tigers be here
That was the only thing between us
That was the only thing that was clear
Here there be tigers
Mini tel aviv in south bombay where you slept off the drugs
Nervous from two years service from where they swept you under the rug
That’s the part that hurts, they said you wouldn’t work
You got down on everything ‘cause everyone let you down
Almost to the point where you could not open your mouth up
To say I love, I’ve always loved you
Here there be tigers, tigers be here
That was the only thing between us
That was the only thing that was clear
Here there be tigers
