Backstory:

Song started with me noodling around on the guitar with different chord sequences.  A reflective song on today's narcissism in culture was then set in motion.  Then I decided on the AABA structure.  The lyric flowed from there.

THE TIGER AT TWILIGHT
words & music by Robert Marino

V1  
You know - the tiger at twilight is ready to strike  
Right at the heart of the matter  
Baby better take care now - when she comes  

V2  
You’ll find – the charm on your bracelet is ready to lie  
Just like your pretty-pink tablets  
Ooh the tiger at twilight – when she comes  

Bridge I        
Oh yeah - she would love to meet you there by the borderline  
She likes to linger where the shadows fall  
And when she calls - you’ll fall awake all night  
Your blinded rainbow eyes   
Will see all that you’ve realized  

V3  
Well you know – the tiger at twilight is surely to bite  
Deep in the heart of the matter  
Baby better take care now - when she comes  

Bridge II           
‘Cause the truth behind the laughter will come-a cuttin’ through  
As the chip on your shoulder comes-a crashes down  
Oh how will it feel when all that you’ve refused ...  
Comes out from under you?  
Yeah I wonder what you’ll do?  

V4  
Well you know - the tiger at twilight is surely to strike  
Deep in the heart of the matter  
Baby better take care now - when she comes [3x]
