I Found The Lions

from Miss Understood by Carolyn Wonderland

/

lyrics

I found the lions
I escaped their jaws
I kept a few of their teeth
But I let them keep their claws
I found the lions or maybe they found me
Could have been bad luck
Or it could have been my destiny
I played dead
But my pulse was too loud
The hyenas giggled as the lions formed a crowd
I played dead
The buzzards in the tree
Waited for the lions to make a meal out of me

Don’t mess with the mighty mighty jungle
Swim through the ocean
Eat the fish in the sea
Don’t mess with the mighty mighty jungle
Because where you find the lions
You will find me

I found the lions
I fell into their lair
No one was there to help me
No one was there to care
I found the lions or maybe they found me
When you stumble in the jungle
It is all a mystery
I played dead
They tossed me around
I kept one eye on the buzzards
And the other on the ground
I played dead
My blood turned thin
The hyenas giggled as the lions closed in

Out of me out of me
You’ll get a little grub
A little bit of skin
And a bone for the cub
No monkey no beast
No dinner no feast
No flood of blood to say the least
Out of me out of me
You’ll come to find
I’m the king of your state of mind
Out of me out of me out of me you’ll get
All that you will come to regret

Don’t mess with the mighty mighty jungle
Swim through the ocean
Eat the fish in the sea
Don’t mess with the mighty mighty jungle
Because where you find the lions
You will find me
