I'm a reader and a writer
Not a lover or a fighter
When it comes to push and shove
I'm as peaceful as a dove
I'm a tiger in the night
When i'm talking of the fight
When it comes to trading blows
I'm the first one on my toes
I'm a leopard in a cage
When i'm on the printed page
When it comes to blood and gore
I'm the first one on the floor
I'm a tiger in the night
When i'm talking of the fight
When it comes to trading blows
I'm the first one on my toes
Well i'm a man of stern repute
When the opposition's mute
When i start to lose my grip
I'm the first one off the ship
I'm a tiger in the night
When i'm talking of the fight
When it comes to trading blows
I'm the first one on my toes
I'm a man of stern repute
When the opposition's mute
When i start to lose my grip
I'm the first one off the ship
I'm a tiger in the night
When i'm talking of the fight
When it comes to trading blows
I'm the first one on my toes
