Elwood J - When Tigers Could Smoke

I can hear your heart drumming
Humming a song that it chose
You can feel your ears burning
Tell you what they want to know
You know everything works in time
Just need to know and keep it in mind
That taking some chances is fine
Take me down to the sea
So I can finally be
All they want you to be is you
Life, life is pretty strange
Knowing what I know
Forces me to change
Adolescence and youth
I had rose-tinted glasses
Affecting my view
Give the old bear a poke
It's time to wake up
From when tigers could smoke
But it feels like this every day
I'm getting closer to you
You know everything works in time
Just need to know and keep it in mind
That taking some chances is fine
Take me down to the sea
So I can finally be
All they want you to be is you
Life, life is pretty strange
Feels like 50 times I've learnt this one
But in the end
You want to help you
Get out of your shoes
No, I just want to be free
Yes maybe I'm thinking of me
You know everything works in time
Just need to know and keep it in mind
That taking some chances is fine
Take me down to the sea
So I can finally be
All they want you to be is you
