Martin Howard - Thylacine Lyrics

Thylacine, won't you be mine
We'll dance together till the end of time
Thylacine, thylacine
Thylacine I'll make you mine
We'll be together our fates entwined
Thylacine, thylacine

She came out of the forest
Heading for the hen-house
The farmer grabbed his gun
To end the process long begun

She said
You won't see my kind again but I'll live on in the hearts of men
You won't see my kind again but I'll live on in the hearts of men

Tiger tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night
Do you linger on somewhere
I guess I'll keep my counsel there

And she said
You'll name things after me though I'm the one you didn't want to see
You'll name things after me though I'm the one you didn't want to see

You'll find me on buses, you'll find me on vans
You'll find me on pictures, you'll find me on stamps
You'll find me on bottles, you'll find me on cans
You'll never find me the place that's the best
In the flesh, in the flesh
In the flesh, in the flesh

In the flesh
