about

Rope Off the Tigers is the first single from Soft Plastics' new album
5 Dreams out later this year on Paper Bag Records.

lyrics

Rope off the tigers
They’ll spill the tea
Their roaring upsets
Congeniality
Punish the wait staff
My breath’s the breeze
Turn your face towards
The filament of the East

My hope lashed to the lash-tower
Floating and free
Cracked caresses of a black storm
Alone in calamity

Rope off the tigers
They’ve drunk the tea
“Lash down that crate, man

You’ll spill the cream”
It dripped from the mist fronds
Of Galilee

No more light trading
No more green feasts

Rope off the tigers
A whim of my liege
Their wildness is soaring

They’re on bad E
Their wicked slobber

Has infected me
I’ll crawl to the doctor

And suss out his sleaze

My hope lashed to the lash-tower
Such things as birds borne on the breeze
Danced and twirled as the sun beaconed strength

Employees in the mangrove maze
Unhinged with hospitality

Rope off the tigers
Their “freedom” is an affront to those who are free

Rope off the tigers
Their freedom shall surely spill your tea
