To Catch A Tiger... Lyrics
"Engine engine number 9 going down Chicago line engine off the Track, do you want your money back?"
We waited all year for this time to come around
We didn't have much, but what we did have, we held very close
"Y-e-s spells yes, not because you're dirty, not because you're clean
Just because you kissed a girl behind a dirty magazine"
I'M IT!
My head against the tree, I start the count 1-2-3....
This is what life's all about......
"Ready or not-" I'm interrupted
My head against the sidewalk
Being thrown to the ground is what I've heard they do
A Laugh in your face and a crack in the head with a bottle of booze
I became the gangs soccer ball, kicked around for their enjoyment
Their laughing became deafening
The memories became scarring
And all they could do was watch
The gang,they swung at will
Pounding my pals for the thrill
But it was laughs that buried me
I leaned up against the tree
Had my pals holding my head

We all sat there and weeped
Why am I not hiding, why am I not seeking
Why am i cut open, the nights filled with shrieking
Give my hiding spot away, I'm done for today
Give my a few years
Then tell em to come back and play
