Keepin` the tigers away letra

I begged
I borrowed
I stole
My soul was for sale
So that we could belong
And taste the finer things
The things that only winning brings
I knew we could get there all alone

We crawled
We said yes, sir" and no, sir"
And closer we came
To the magic and the gold
I learned how to laugh
How to lie
Look them right in the eye
I saw people bought and people sold

We where keepin` the tigers away
Keepin` the tigers away
hiding from the real thing
That always comes some day
Keepin` the tigers
Keepin` the tigers away

And then one day you ask
„Is that all there is"
It all goes by so fast
There`s the house and the car and the kids
And your finaly see the world for what it really is

You were keepin` the tigers away
Keepin` the tigers away
hiding from the real thing
That always comes some day
Keepin` the tigers
Keepin` the tigers away
