Live 03 Jun 1999 version
One, two, one two three four!
Broke my heart, tore it apart
Thought it was cute, thought it was smart
Now I'm back and I've got the strength of ten
But I got a message for you my friend
I'm Daniel waiting in the lion's den
Daniel waiting for that lion to come
Daniel waiting in the lion's den
Dum dum dee dum dum dee dee dum dum
That old lion's mean and long in the tooth
Like you, baby, he's out on the loose
Messing hearts up time and time again
I got a message for you my friend
I'm Daniel waiting in the lion's den
Daniel waiting for that lion to come
Daniel waiting in the lion's den
Dum dum dee dum dum dee dee dum dum
Come on!

At night I hear you out prowling around
Messing guys up, tearing 'em down
All the growling's gonna come to no end
I got a message for you my friend
I'm Daniel waiting in the lion's den
