Long may you reign
You’re an animal
You are bloodthirsty
Out window panes
Talking utter nonsense
You have no idea
Strings tied to levers
Slowed-down clocks tethered
All this showmanship
To keep it for you in sweetness
Way to go, tiger
Higher and higher
Wilder and lighter
For you
Long may you roar
At your dinosaurs
You’re a just ruler
Covered in mud
You look ridiculous
And you have no idea
Buried down deep
And out of your reach
The secret we all vowed
To keep it from you in sweetness
Way to go, tiger
Higher and higher
Wilder and lighter
For you
You got the dragonflies above your bed
You have a favorite spot on the swing set
You have no room in your dreams for regrets
You have no idea
The time will arrive for the cruel and the mean
You’ll learn to bounce back just like your trampoline
But now we’ll curtail your curiosity
In sweetness
Way to go, tiger (Way to go, tiger)
Higher and higher (Higher and higher)
Wilder and lighter
For you
