Toothless Tiger Jen Cloher

Sometimes I feel like a toothless tiger
Trying to keep up, they're falling behind yer
All my dreams are really delusions
You live yours like country Confucius

I am the lover
You are my loved one
I'm on the way out
You're on the way up

All the praise and the glory it showers
Down on you from radio towers
On the street, everyone's throwing flowers
Staring at you like you stepped out of Star Wars

I am your lover
You are my loved one
I'm on the way out
You're on the way up

On the [?]
I labor hard while you reap it in easy
To compare is to lay down with envy
How come the second deadly sin is so deadly

Here I've been dragging
[?]
Seems like most of my friends
Still don't really know
