The boy who talked to Tigers
Was such a naughty boy
That boy did think that Tigers
Were just some cuddly Toy

Tigers aren’t toys
Tigers aren’t toys
Tigers aren’t toys for naughty little boys
Tigers aren’t toys
Tigers aren’t toys
No tigers aren’t toys at all

The boy who talked to Tigers
Went to see them every day
That boy did love his tigers
Though they saw him as prey

Just beware
Just beware
Just beware ‘cos tigers don’t care
Just beware
Just beware
Just beware ‘cos tigers don’t care at all

The boy who talked to Tigers
Got so close while at the zoo
That one of the young tigers
Had bitten hold his shoe

Tigers like meat
Tigers like meat
Tigers like meat so mind your feet
Tigers like meat
Tigers like meat
Tigers like meat so mind your feet alright

Now all you fans of tigers
Take heed of what I say
He’s a cunning chap that tiger
In oh so many ways
And every time that tiger
Pretends he’s half asleep
Just you mind that tiger
And just you watch your feet.
