lame lion or tamed lion?

which is better? i'd go with the latter, most likely
...
things ain't all that tame, but i was that lame
with pockets and drawers full of crutches and canes
now i'm running, like jim fix, not quite like jimmy connors
not chasing tennis balls
not dying of a coronary
in lieu of that, clefting bangs in twain, leaving a wane
mane strain, the silent killer, the lion de-fanger
a parasite, attacks on a jungian level
you'll step in front of a bus, so, therefore...

i'll make an executive decision and shave it off, no wait
i'll wait until i'm rejected for the job, then shave it off
as a big bald fuck you, like as if i would ever do anything for them, no
i'm incidental to that, but until then
all this rockin hair and me in a rocking chair
retired... dio, time to go, he's such a gentleman, they say

these are the collection of ailments, something's always wrong...
it'll be a golden age in retrospect, gilded powerslave cap
as they mostly are, if preserved in cerebro-spinal fluid at appropriate temperature
some memories evaporated through the ear canals and ocular interface
some sweated through pores

not paranoid when you should be just one of my normal keyboard improvisations, nothing special, except that it's recorded on a real grand.
