You're a tiger walking through worlds of burning fire But they put you in a zoo In your dreams you were flying through the trees But when you woke up you were behind a lock and key So you looked up into the faces of the people staring at you You said what the fuck are you looking at I'm a tiger this is no place for my fire you're a liar If you think you care about me So you went to dreamland More and more often cos in dreamland You were King of the Jungle but in that fucking cage you were angered and afraid That you'd never ever see the day that you could run away You said who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo I'm a tiger with a fire and I'll bite you in your face Who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo I'm a tiger with a fire and I'll bite you in your face You're a dolphin, Queen of the Ocean Mind of mystery a soul that is free Then one day while you were at play they took you And put you far far away Where they train you for people's entertainment You said I hope you are entertained by my containment In your dreams you were flying through the sea But when you woke up you were behind a lock and key You said why am I here listening to your cheers I'm a dolphin from the ocean and that's where I'm meant to be Why am I here listening to your cheers I'm a dolphin from the ocean you should be entertaining me I think the chords are Am and Adim - please correct me if that's wrong! :)
Thanks for the lyrics couldn't find them anywhere else!! Chords are Am7 and D7 though (i - IV Progression on Loop), but she plays them without playing all the notes: She plays an alternating bass on the 6th and 5th string and hits only the 2nd and 3d string at the same time in between. First chord she plays C + G while alternating the bass between A and E Second chord she plays F# + A while alternating the bass between A and F# Peace!
@@richardmiller2049 Isn't it funny how humans pressure other species to the point of extinction then praise themselves for confining them to save them. Your premise of conservation doesn't stand up if you are conserving the species to live in an unnatural habitat. The song is about a wild creature living or not living depending on your point of view, I know I would rather die than live in a cage for the rest of my life. To be perfectly honest I am at a stage in my life were I am considering being confined to the structures of the civilization I'm living in now are perhaps not the best for me.
Came back to this video after quite some time upon the death of tokitae the orca who died in captivity after 53 years earlier today. Still send shivers down my spine; the world would do better with more like minded folk of this nature. Rest easy Tokitae, may your spirit move on to places uncaptured by the likes of man 🙏 thank you again to Alice Phoebe Lou for such meaningful and beautiful art ❤
Remember listening to this a few years ago and got reacquainted with her music at the beginning of this year. Her songwriting never fails to grab my attention.
I was looking for good music. I didn't watch the clips. I read the comments. And I found one; "God, what a voice!" Then I watched the clip. I found Alice. She enchanted me with the color of her voice, its timbre, I found her kingdom. I loved her.
I couldn't find the lyrics so I wrote them myself, enjoy ^-^ You are a tiger Walking through worlds of burning fire But they put you in a zoo And your dreams, you were flying through the trees But when you woke up You were behind the locking keys So you looked up Into the faces of the people staring at you You said "What the fuck are you looking at? I'm a tiger This is no place for my fire. You're liar! If you think you care about me..." So you went to dreamland More and more often Cause in dreamland You were king of the jungle But in that fucking cage You were angered and afraid That you'd never ever see the day that you can run away You said "Who the fuck are you? To put me in a zoo I'm a tiger with a fire and I'll bite you in your face You're a dolphin, queen of the ocean Mind of mystery, a soul that is free Then one day while you were at play They took you and put(?) you far far away Where they train you For people's entertainment You said I hope you are entertained by my containment In your dreams you were flying through the sea But when you woke up you were behind the locking keys Said "Why am I here? Listening to your cheers I'm a dolphin from the ocean and it's where I meant to be Why am I here? Listening to your cheers I'm a dolphin from the ocean You should be entertaining me!"
I have a daughter named Phoebe. I taught her not to cry. That it was too much for the heart. And you look tough and all grown up like her. Very passionate rendition.
Discovered this little ditty about a week ago. I've played it about a 100 times just because I'm learning how to play it on acoustic. Simple tune. brilliant lyrics. Young people have such talent nowadays.
I am a big fan of Alice and seeing her in concert in april was a dream come through. It was cancelled twice because of Covid..She is just so nice and talenful.
I know, me too....humans are scum...pity Covid couldn't be more selective and wipe out the millions that think animals are there for humans to profit from and to exploit
This is one of the greatest songs that I've ever heard. And it's one of the saddest. As it's a strange kind of sadness. Not mastered by resignation. But instead so full of rage for senseless mocking tragedy. Rage that is far more beautiful than bitter. Because her heart is beautiful. She's like Antigone. With a heart that would defy kings. I'm so amazed by this song I wish I could play it right now. But it's too late to be playing guitar and singing. I'll learn it tomorrow.
The sentiment is great but the message is quite misguided tbh. Most zoos probably, intentionally or not, abuses their animals. The top tier accredited zoos however treats their animals very well and play (and have played) an important role in conservation. This song is also misguided on several aspects of animal behaviour.
merci d'avoir traduit cette chanson car elle est vraiment belle ,et en plus chanter par une belle chanteuse et une voix hyper puissante un régale je ne me lasse pas de la voir merci Alice
This has been one of my favorite songs for years now. I discovered it around the time it was published here, 7 years ago. Each time I find new nuances in it. BUT ONLY TODAY discovered that it is written by Alice Phoebe Lou herself. ? Is that right?!
@@bankruptsee shes south african, i think its just her accent slipping through but i get what you mean, a lot of current female artists do put on childish voices but ahh well, whatever pays the bills i guess

All I can say is ... Alice Phoebe Lou, you are pure class. And @SupernalArts - Wood stock material I reckon, judging by all the woodstock video archive I have seen. Love the Strong Boi as well ... Once again Pure class.
That´s actually the first time i wrote a commentary, but is this song on an Album? If not I really need it! It´s such a short song but the power behind is so big. Lg :)
This song hits such a heavy chord in my heart every time i hear it... By how we treat other intelligent life on Earth, we can tell how civilized we have become!
![Rising Appalachia- Medicine [Official Music Video]](/img/n.gif)
the 60's would have loved her
So does 2020 . . and probably need her more now than ever
@@Mikee22ification we need her do we... yeah?
SupernalArts the now would love her
Nice assumption but this person would not be the same person if born in that period of time.
100% vashti bunyan vibes, yes
To this very day, this song still gives me chills.
me too i heard it when she opened for Rod Riguez in SA and wow it has stuck with me ever since, we need more music like this spreading these msgs. powerful
Genius
I still come back here every month to watch this master piece 😊
You're a tiger walking through worlds of burning fire
But they put you in a zoo
In your dreams you were flying through the trees
But when you woke up you were behind a lock and key
So you looked up into the faces of the people staring at you
You said what the fuck are you looking at
I'm a tiger this is no place for my fire you're a liar
If you think you care about me
So you went to dreamland
More and more often cos in dreamland
You were King of the Jungle but in that fucking cage you were angered and afraid
That you'd never ever see the day that you could run away
You said who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo
I'm a tiger with a fire and I'll bite you in your face
Who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo
I'm a tiger with a fire
and I'll bite you in your face
You're a dolphin, Queen of the Ocean
Mind of mystery a soul that is free
Then one day while you were at play they took you
And put you far far away
Where they train you for people's entertainment
You said I hope you are entertained by my containment
In your dreams you were flying through the sea
But when you woke up you were behind a lock and key
You said why am I here listening to your cheers
I'm a dolphin from the ocean and that's where I'm meant to be
Why am I here listening to your cheers
I'm a dolphin from the ocean
you should be entertaining me
I think the chords are Am and Adim - please correct me if that's wrong! :)

Peace!
Zoos are huge conservationists and breeders preventing them from going extinct.
Boring and not edgy. Its angsty bullshit
Thank you 🙏

I’m not embarrassed to say I’ve listen to this song maybe 50 times.
She and Aurora are like these two sisters in stories that got separated in birth but came across similar paths in future life
True
Yeeeeeaaaaaah absolutley!!!!!!!! We should all try to make them do a song together guuuys!!!!!!
YES U FKING READ MY MIND
so glad somebody said this lol
Aurora has no fire . Alice do have.
wish i could like this a thousand times!! pls dont ever stop spreading the knowledge of peace and respect for animals!!
yes you are right! choose vegan! go vegan!
i love this singer’s message and she sings from her heart for the animals.
Thank you Alice for this beautiful song for the animals in captivity! 💕
And for the animals going to slaughterhouses for our taste pleasure!
@Gary Miller That is objectively false.
Imagine if you can...that animal is a Human. Easier to take this song for face value..."Why are kids shooting up schools?????"
Still so awesome.
So much aura, so much spirit.
Thanks Alice phoebe Lou.

Amazing to see that peaceful culture Berlin experienced from 1990 to the late 2010s. It has all gone during the last 5 years.
Clever Alice as usual ...... protest songs reach out to people and hopefully change the world a little !!
This voice .. you’re gifted girl , thank you for this wonderful moment !
I couldn't find the lyrics so I wrote them myself, enjoy ^-^
You are a tiger
Walking through worlds of burning fire
But they put you in a zoo
And your dreams, you were flying through the trees
But when you woke up
You were behind the locking keys
So you looked up
Into the faces of the people staring at you
You said "What the fuck are you looking at? I'm a tiger
This is no place for my fire. You're liar!
If you think you care about me..."
So you went to dreamland
More and more often
Cause in dreamland
You were king of the jungle
But in that fucking cage
You were angered and afraid
That you'd never ever see the day that you can run away
You said "Who the fuck are you?
To put me in a zoo
I'm a tiger with a fire and I'll bite you in your face
You're a dolphin, queen of the ocean
Mind of mystery, a soul that is free
Then one day while you were at play
They took you and put(?) you far far away
Where they train you
For people's entertainment
You said I hope you are entertained by my containment
In your dreams you were flying through the sea
But when you woke up you were behind the locking keys
Said "Why am I here? Listening to your cheers
I'm a dolphin from the ocean and it's where I meant to be
Why am I here? Listening to your cheers
I'm a dolphin from the ocean
You should be entertaining me!"
:D
Up
isn't it "in your dreams", and "behind a lock and key"?
Yeah sure maybe there are some "mistakes" but fukk off. I mean s/he wrote the whole text down for us so thank you!
thx (:
I have a daughter named Phoebe. I taught her not to cry. That it was too much for the heart. And you look tough and all grown up like her. Very passionate rendition.
Why would you teach someone not to cry?
OH! Lyrics that actually matters... I can´t believe my ears. Hats off. For both this musician and the tigers.
I dk why but out of all of her songs this one mesmerizes me the most. Beautiful.

me too
She is so beautiful and this song and her voice were amazing.
I just love APL's music, I can see she'll be around for a very long time
🌎This is the most beautiful song I’ve heard for awhile ! ❤️🐅🐬
Weirdly I let the google algorithm run... and somehow it brought me back to this. Thanks Alice!
The more I listen, the better it gets. Wonderful.
Peace and Love

She looks 7 and 32 at the same time
And how old is she? :o
Nestler 27
She’s 27 right now or 27 at the time?
I saw a video 5 years old about her and they said she was 27 too, has she been 27 for 10 years or what
I have to say i’m an ignorant dumb bitch but, Oh sorry, she’s 26 now. She was born in July of 1993)
good one
Love this, I seen this video and now I'm hooked with her music! Her voice is amazing.
love this gal , bought the cd
This should have played the end of tiger king
Yeah hahaha
This showed up recommended to me after Tiger King... how... ? THE AI ALGORITHMS ARE GETTING PRETTY GOOD! o_o

@@geofannyyohanes6285 you are deliberately misguided, spend your life behind bars to entertain others for profit and then tell us what it is like.
She’s always been the best lyricist. And her amazing graceful and vibrato voice always makes be tremble.
this is my new favorite song! thank you Alice Phoebe Lou!
merci d'avoir traduit cette chanson car elle est vraiment belle ,et en plus chanter par une belle chanteuse et une voix hyper puissante un régale je ne me lasse pas de la voir merci Alice
Is this originally in another language
I cry every. Single. Time. That I hear this song 😢💔🐾
love this girl... such a talent and beautiful soul...
This song Speaks Volumes
so happy this artist was in my recommended videos
I feel exactly like the tiger and the dolphin as a human being born into a “society”. Thank you for expressing something from deep in my soul. 🌺
How did a 1000 people not like this?!?
i can't stop listening to this song. i've turned alot of people onto it too.
nice
i thought u said turned on
@@ilikefurbys1618 me too
Yay me and my partner have too 💚✨✌🏻👽🪐
I don't know Alice, yet I feel like we know each other for eternity. This is beautiful soul in a talented woman.
What a voice on her. Mauer Park is such a cool place. Spent a day there watching street musicians like her and the great Bear Pit Karaoke.
How can someone dislike this song? Its a beautiful song with message...
I am in love with this song

BUT ONLY TODAY discovered that it is written by Alice Phoebe Lou herself. ? Is that right?!
Randomly discovered right now.. Love it great voice
Its not bad. sounds like every other female singer out there right now with that 5 year old child pronunciation voice but still very talented.
@@bankruptsee shes south african, i think its just her accent slipping through but i get what you mean, a lot of current female artists do put on childish voices but ahh well, whatever pays the bills i guess
@@oi-fc9lm Yeah it's that same voice that lana del ray, ellie goulding, and many others have right now. They all sound the same.
who would dislike a masterpiece like this?
This song gives me chills every time.
I have faith, but keep singing.. you do it so well. I love it. And I love you.
That's beyond beautiful.
Berlins vibes , Berlin loves you , greetings from Berlin Germany 🇩🇪
Seems like a nice little girl, and those parents bringing their small children to watch her perform these genius lyrics. Amazing.
what a wonderful song! The panning video shots also reminded me why i'm not into music festivals anymore lol
Why do I feel guilty for loving this song, it's so beautiful yet so heartbreaking, really powerful song ❤❤
No, feel proud that she's raising awareness of how animals are treated for our enjoyment. And that it and she is beautiful!!
Check out Joey Carbstrong if u love animals
Brilliant live sound from Alice. Had a white tiger tattooed on my arm 12 years ago so this song really connects.
Pure soul
So beautiful, and makes you really question every all at the same time...
Beautiful voice, refreshing artist so real 🌞🌻
A wonderful slice of her early career. This shows not only her musicality, but also her ... uh ... attitude! She probably is the tiger in the song.
beautiful song and message. And woman;)
I love this narration it's like a freestyle cool two thumbs up keep keeping it 100
I so need this song on Spotify... 💔
I love this girl! She is powerful!Big fan!! ❤️
This may have been a performance that rivaled "smelly cat" at Central Perk
She just makes me have faith in humanity. So damn incredible.
Man, the girl from Mary Poppins really hasn’t been the same since she had that spoonful of medicine :/
Once seen ,you cant unsee... it looks exactly like her!
she realy looks like her XD
That's the first thing I thought of lol
LMAO
Loved your song ♥️
Reminds me of Laura Marling.
Can't get enough of this song♡
wow, amazing, I love it, make as much music as possible
Official Soundtrack of "Tigerking". Now on Netflix.
you are the best Alice, thank you
Alice is incredible singer!!! Alice in Berlín Park is the same that music in the paradise
after all these years its still one of an amazing song!
I wish I could like this a million times!!!!!!!! amazing FUCKING SONG!!!!
Another beautiful song I love it 😊
You're a tiger
Walking through worlds of burning fire
But they put you in a zoo. In your dreams
You were flying through the trees but when you woke up
you were behind a lock and key
So you looked up
Into the faces of the people staring at you
You said what the fuck are you looking at, I'm a tiger
This is no place for my fire, you're a lier
If you think you care about me. So you went to dreamland
More and more often, because in dreamland
You were king of the jungle. But in that fucking cage,
You were angered and afraid that you would never ever see the day that you could run away
You said,
Who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo
I'm a tiger with the fire and I'll bite you in your face
Who the fuck are you to put me in a zoo
I'm a tiger with the fire and I'll bite you in your face
You're a dolphin,
Queen of the ocean mind of mysteries
So that it's free
Then one day,
While you were at play
They took you, and put you far far away
Where they train you
For people's entertainment. You said I hope you
Are entertained by my containment. In your dreams,
You were flying through the sea
But when you woke up,
You were behind a lock and key
Said,
Why am I here listening to your cheers, I'm a dolphin from the ocean and that's where I'm meant to be
Why am I here listening to your cheers, I'm a dolphin from the ocean you should be entertaining me
One of the best performers in a long time...
This is amazeballs, so captivating and the rolling rhythm is just enticing! :D Love 💖
Wow! Great song and performance
Her voice is so worth remembering
So cool it's incredible
beautiful sweet but sad..It really gives me the chillls
All I can say is ... Alice Phoebe Lou, you are pure class. And @SupernalArts - Wood stock material I reckon, judging by all the woodstock video archive I have seen. Love the Strong Boi as well ... Once again Pure class.
my favourite song ever. point. alice resume what i think about animals market, i love her...but for sure i love animals..i'm an animal
I love her she is so beautiful and her music is beautiful also.
This is the saddest song I’ve ever heard!!
God I only come across Alice a couple of years ago absolutely amazing made my life
So Shoshanna vanished into the Berlin Underground to make beautiful art. Love it
She is gorgeous and I LOVE her voice and songwriting! New fan for sure
Well this song is beautiful and she has a beautiful voice
...the music industry needed her. As long as she stays genuine and away from “them”
This is probably my new favourite song but it’s not on Spotify :(
Get TH-cam music. Million times better than Spotify and you get all the wierd/quirky songs you'd never get on Spotify
captivating - in every way! love it!
This song is how I feel walking though this world everyday
Just brilliant
