Be good is her name
And I sing my lion's song and brush my mane
She would if she could
So she pulled my lion's tail and cause me pain
She said lions are made for cages
Just to look at in delight
You dare not let 'em walk around
Cause they might just bite
Does she know what she does
When she dances around my cage and says her name
Be good be good
Be good is her name
I trim my lion's claws and I
And I cut my mane
And I would if I could
But that woman treats me the same
She said lions are made for cages
Just to look at in delight
You dare not let'em walk around
Cause they might just bite
Does she know what she does
When she dances round my cage
Be good is her name
I sing my lion's song
Brush my mane
And she would
If she could
So she pulled my lion's tail
And cause me pain
She said lions are made for cages
Juste to look at delight
You dare not let'em walk around
Cause they might just bite
Does she know what she does
When she dances around my cage?
Be good
Is her name
I trim my lion's claw and I
And I cut my mane
And I would if I could
But be good
Treats me the same
She said lions are made for cages
Just to look at in delight
You dare let'em walk around
Cause they might just bite
Does she know what she does
When she dances around my cage?
She dances around my cage
Does she know?
Does she know?
Be good
Be good
Be good
Be good
