HUNGRY TIGER and FRIEND.
Easy Tiger slow down a bit,
your running at great speed.
Tiger, Tiger slow down please
is there really any need?
If I slowed down a bit,
it could be the end of me.
So without much haste
no time to waste
I'm hunting for my tea.
Who says you have to run
with me at great speed?
For what I catch is mine alone
yes mine alone indeed.
Tiger, Tiger what if you miss in the end?
Oh! No need to worry if I miss
I can always eat my friend!
I was afraid of that with this stripy cat
I don't think I'll hang about
for if he fails to catch his prey
then he'll eat me no doubt.
I'm off!
