Life On A Film Set Songtext / Lyric

All the poems of my neighbours

That drift across the sand

Are just the tendrils

Of a vast

But gentle plant which they command



The headdress of a goddess

You wore the night we came

Is only one small symptom

I'm really not to blame



You're riding a tiger

Riding a tiger



Heaven sent the mortals

Raged upon the wall

And likewise all the missiles

Shot to make them fall

Effortlessly moving

Picture into frame






Riding a tiger

(You're) Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger



Over the beaches

Into the sky

Into the reach of some

Last goodbye



Key grip was crying

Best boy was made

Here in the shelter

No one afraid

We were there



Follow the road

That leads to the sun

Look for the leader

He is the one

Who will



Offer the silence

You must beware

Using the danger

No one can share



Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger



Out of the morning

Into the day

On to the evening

No where to stay

We were



Always together

Always the same

Into the future

No one to blame



Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger



Riding a tiger

Riding a tiger
