At last, I've made it here again. I'm making waves once more!
How long it's been, I can't say when because I'm not quite sure...
Us tigers like to strut our stuff, to wander fancy free...
Enjoying life, enjoying love! I think most would agree...
As tigers, we can live like lords, no matter where we are.
Whether it's crossing streams or fords, we're nobles, near or far!
That's why I'm here, to make it known, not hiding out of sight.
I'm not afraid, no need to groan, no reason now to fight.
I'm making waves, let others stare, it's time to have some fun!
It's time to show I just don't care... Perhaps it's too much sun...
When water looks as cool as this and sparkles crystal clear,
I tell you that it's perfect bliss, pure paradise, my dear!
I'm making waves, I'm feeling great, I'm here to seize the day!
Before the streams evaporate, let's take the time to play...
We may not be so blessed next time. Find time for fun, somehow!
Life needn't be an uphill climb... Let's take advantage! NOW!
