You...

Tiger TailsWe are intertwined and insane and I don't even mind
Running you down is bliss, then we pause with a hiss

A Tale of TailsWe are primates, one and all
And our heritage is not from the fall.
The primate group is where we’re from
And no matter how far we’ve come
We owe our past through ties of time
And that’s the purpose of this rhyme.
We are a great ape, just like the...

Say, "Hi!" and pat his head.
But if to the tail a Rottweiler’s latched,
Better nothing's said!
