don't overstay your welcome
4 minutes or less
say it all, if you can, with a picture
with some borrowed ideas
& some moods that you stole
it's still new if you work on the mixture

shift the focus again
talk of some long-lost friend
there's a lot to be said about the weather
how the rain keeps on pouring
your hometown is boring
or abandon your words altogether

no more tigers
no more kings
time will take care of everything
no messiahs
no clipped wings
you have said all you needed to win

don't name names, take the blame
make it seem like you knew
what you wanted to say when you started
take a painless farewell
poke some fun at yourself
it won't hurt to be seen as lighthearted

no more tigers
no more kings
time will take care of everything
no messiahs
no clipped wings
you have said all you needed to win

no more tigers
no new schemes
in a year you can distance yourself from your dreams
no messiahs
new regimes
you'll forget how you felt when you heard the world scream
