Lyrics:
I caught you streaking in your Birkenstocks
A scary thought in the two Ks
It's not too late, it's in two days
Got enveloped in your sticker shock
I gotta tell you, it's a barrage
It's a barrage, it's a mirage

We are the tigers
We need separate rooms
We are so divided
Let us in
Change is all we need to improve

Call me petty, I mean every word
The ands, the ifs, the buts and the thes
Trust me because I am worth hating
I'm a 1-800 you can vent
A garden variety amends
Rules we can bend, insular narrow

We are the tigers
We need separate rooms
We are so divided
Let us in

Hard to believe I never had a spleen
Never had a spleen
Never had a dream
??? throw you in the steel
