Tiger With a Battering Ram

(Seth Asa)

January 6, 2010

This is a song culled from Pretty Youth #48: "i'm a lot of stuff."

A TIGER WITH A BATTERING RAM
PRETTY YOUTH

(Seth):
I'M LIKE A TIGER WITH A BATTERING RAM
I'M LIKE A SIDE-A-PORK BUT NOT LIKE A HAM
I'M LIKE THE WALRUS, BUT I'M MORE LIKE THE BIRD
I'M LIKE EMOTIONS, BUT I'M MORE LIKE THE WORD...

I'M LIKE A SONG, BUT I'M NOT LIKE A POEM
I'M LIKE A CARDBOARD BOX, I'M NOT LIKE "HOME"
I'M LIKE A BACKPACK, AND I'M LIKE A BAG
I'M LIKE A SACK, AND I"M LIKELY TO SAG

(STITCH):
I'M LIKE A SIGNAL, I'M LIKE A SIGN
I'M LIKE THOSE SILLY DRAGS WHO KEEPS ON TRYIN'
I'M LIKE THAT DRESS YOU LEFT OUT IN THE RAIN
I'M LIKE AN ILNESS WITHOUT THE PAIN

I'M LIKE AN ACROBAT OUT OF THE AIR...
I'M LIKE A PENNILESS MILLIONAIRE...
I'M LIKE THE TRUTH TRAIN, YOU'RE LIKE THE DARE...(truth or dare)

(Seth)
I'M A "HOW TO" MANUAL ON HOW TO NOT
I'M A "HOW TO" MANUAL ON HOW NOT TO GET CAUGHT
I'M A "HOW TO" MANUAL ON OCCASSIONAL LIES
I'M A "HOW TO" MANUAL ON ANNUAL DISGUISE...

(STITCH)
I'M LIKE A RABBI PREACHIN' CATHOLIC MASS
I'M LIKE WHITE TRASH RIDIN' FIRST CLASS
I'M LIKE A LIGHTNING ROD UP A FROG'S ASS

(Seth)
I'M LIKE A BOOK, THAT'S NEVER BEEN READ
I'M LIKE A DEAD GUY, WHO'S NEVER BEEN DEAD
I'M LIKE A SCHOOLBOY WHO'S ALWAYS BEEN LATE
I"M LIKE THE TEACHER WHO JUST CAN'T RELATE

(STITCH)
I'M LIKE AN ANTHRO-MORPHISIS
I'M LIKE DARWINIAN, I'M LIKE A FISH
I'M LIKE AN ORGANIC SATELLITE DISH

(Seth)
I'M LIKE A TIGER WITH A BATTERING RAM
I'M LIKE A TIGER WITH A BATTERING RAM
I'M LIKE THE BULL WHO's HAD TOO MUCH
I'M LIKE A LOT OF STUFF...
