Lion Tamer, change the locks on my cage
I know you trust me, but it just isn’t safe
I get excited once in a while
When we pass through the prairie
That beautiful wild...
You don’t choose my fate
I could eat your face
I don’t want to but who can say
I’m hungry for a day away!
Thanks for all the snacks
I'm just layin' down the facts
I’m not your circus act or
Your rabbit in a hat
I'm Golden...
Lion Tamer, take your eyes off the prize
The time has come that I return to my pride
I get excited once in a while
When we pass through the city
That beautiful wild...
You don’t choose my fate
I could eat your face
I don’t want to but who can say
I’m hungry for a day away!
Thanks for all the snacks but
The cat’s out of the bag
I’m not your circus act or
Your rabbit in a hat
I'm Golden...
I like you, no it’s really nothing personal
I swear it’s not, it’s just sometimes I have to do some things
Oh I like you, no it’s really nothing personal
I just don’t think that this is my fate among the stars
Oh I hope you understand...
