Year of the Tiger - Everclear

He was born into the year of the tiger

60 years ago when flesh and blood were black and white

He was born with a heart just like a grinding gear

Fifty eight years before the world he knew would disappear

The year of the tiger

We are still broken from that fucked up year that disappeared

She was born into the promise of the shining path

Lucky in a way that no one really under stands

Ten years old with a mind just like a golden voice

She grew up in a blue state hiding from the silver noise

No one wants to hear your stupid fucking explanations

No one wants to hear your stupid reasons why

Here we are in the year of the tiger

We are where we are because of all the big lies

No one wants to hear your stupid fucking accusations

No one wants to hear you… you… you…

I had a dream… I saw a tiger in a happy place

In a Nirvana shirt, with a happy face

I had a dream I saw a tiger in a MAGA hat…

Don’t look back

You can never look back

We have to change the stupid way we show our stripes

We have to change the addictive way we eat the hype

We have to stop spreading this disease

We have to stop saying sorry, stop saying please

You do not have to like it

Tigers we are everywhere

The math doesn’t lie

Someday you’ll have to face the fact

That the truth is not a slogan on a stupid red hat

The year of the tiger

We are still broken from that fucked up year that disappeared

Here we are in the year of the tiger

The year of the tiger

Here we are in the year of the tiger

We are still broken

So fucking broken

Here we are in the year of the tiger

We are still broken from that fucked up year that disappeared
