Lyrics:

I'll make no ?? with you, John,
You're the kind to hold me down,
And the way I feel, I might just take a dive.
Last night I had a dream
Although I've known it all along,
Believe me, only tigers can survive.

The crowd was ready, silent
When they put me in the end(?).
I would swear I was the only one alive.
And I felt I'd better tell you
So you'll always be aware,
Believe me, only tigers can survive.

I had a friend who struggled
Writing signs upon a wall,
And he didn't even notice me arrive.
'Cause he's had a lady's loving
For as long as I recall
And he knows that only tigers can survive.

The crowd was ready, silent
When they put me in the end(?).
I would swear I was the only one alive.
And I felt I'd better tell you
So you'll always be aware,
Believe me, only tigers can survive.
