"Circus Tigers" without David Bowie

In 1994 Nabil was on holiday in Ireland and filmed circus tigers performing. One of his all time favourite movies is
Malcolm McDowell and Nastassia Kinski's version of "Cat People" (mainly because he loves black panthers, and is a great admirer of Malcolm McDowell) and he loves David Bowie's theme song "Putting out fire with gasoline". In the original video Nabil used the Bowie's Cat People song as the soundtrack for his Circus Tigers film but Youtube made such a fuss, mainly because of spoilsports like WMG (World Music Group), that he removed Bowie audio and created his

own cover version "Cat People (putting out fire)".

The creation of this video of tigers in a circus in no way condones or endorses animal circuses. I believe the

exploitation and training of animals for circus entertainment is demeaning, abusive and cruel to the animals

concerned.

Lyrics----------------
"Cat People (Putting Out The Fire)"

See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Colder than the moon
It's been so long
And I've been putting out fire
With gasoline

Feel my blood enraged
It's just the fear of losing you
Don't you know my name
Well, you been so long

See these eyes so red
Red like jungle burning bright
Those who feel me near
Pull the blinds and change their minds
It's been so long

Still this pulsing night
A plague I call a heartbeat
Just be still with me
Ya wouldn't believe what I've been thru
You've been so long
Well it's been so long
And I've been putting out fire
with gasoline
putting out fire
with gasoline

See these tears so blue
An ageless heart
that can never mend
These tears can never dry
A judgement made
can never bend
See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Just be still with me
You wouldn't believe what I've been thru

You've been so long
Well, it's been so long
And I've been putting out fire
with gasoline
putting out fire with gasoline
