Last of the big game hunters


I have heard dandelions
Roaring out in my backyard.
A direct approach is dangerous
Until you're sure they've dropped their guard.
You'd be better off to wait
Until the brutes go for the bait
And when they can't anticipate
Is when you pounce and break their necks.
Sure, some call me insane...
But danger is my middle name.
I have spied tiger-spiders
On the prowl along my fence.
But the speed at which they travel
Makes a chase much too intense.
So you set your traps with care,
Scattering them here and there,
Hoping for a leg to snare
(And with eight, the odds are in your favour.)
Watch out they can maim
Even with a leg left lame.
Sure, some call me insane...
But danger is my middle name.
There is one great adversary
That consumes my thoughts foremost.
You see, a dragonfly breathes fire,
So it's not safe to get too close.
But it's hard to be aware
Of them appearing from nowhere
As they swoop down through the air.
I might just need a rocket-launcher.
Not even scalding flame
Could make me shake my aim.
Sure, some call me insane...
But danger is my middle name.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Barstool Prophets were a rock band formed in Cornwall, Ontario, in 1989 and active throughout the 1990s. The original lineup included bassist Glenn Forrester, singer and songwriter Graham Greer, guitarist Al Morier, and drummer Bobby Tamas. Initially known as The Wallflowers, the band changed its name in time to release their first independent album, *Deflowered*, in 1993. They subsequently signed with Mercury Records and released *Crank* in 1995 and *Last of the Big Game Hunters* in 1997. The single "Paranoia" was included on the soundtrack to the film *Never Talk to Strangers* starring Antonio Banderas and Rebecca De Mornay. The singles "Paranoia", "Last of the Big Game Hunters", and "Friend of Mine" were all Canadian rock radio hits in the mid-to-late 1990s.
