I crouch in fear - it walks towards me

If I try to hide it turns and claws me

It scares away or stalks my friends

It's killed before, it could again

I'm chained to an amazing lion

I've long since thrown away the key

Though the chain is silver in my hands

Only lion tamers understand

At times the creature's beauty awes me

And lulls me into slumbers deep

But if I sleep the lion growls

And I've seen it when it's time to roar

But if I feed it

It needs more and more and more and more

Now my lion seems to need a name

I think I'll call my lion

Yes, I think I'll call my lion

Yes, I think I'll call my lion Fame

Think I'll call my lion Fame

Lion's risen into view

It stands between us, me and you

But I won't survive without my lion

Though it can go on without me

So I could never set that monster free

I know it could kill me and consume me

Then grow to some gigantic size

Either way the lion wins

I feed it though I live or die

I'm chained to an amazing lion

I've long since thrown away the key

Though the chain is silver in my hands

Only lion tamers understand

My lion seems to need a name

I think I'll call my lion

Yes, I think I'll call my lion

Yes, I think I'll call my lion - Fame

I think I'll call my lion Fame

I think I'll call my lion Fame

Think I'll call my lion
