Now, this may be reading a bit much into Marc's lyrics here, but... Could the line 'this girl is a lamb with the thoughts of a tiger' refer to William Blake's poem 'The Tyger', from Songs Of Experience? The poem itself clearly contrasts with his earlier poem, 'The Lamb', from Songs Of Innocense: 'Did he who made the Lamb make thee?'. Also: could the following line, 'moves like a cat but knows how to ride her' refer to the chinese proverb 'he who rides a tiger is afraid to dismount'? Marc was fond of classical poetry from many different cultures, after all. Perhaps he was cleverer than he seemed?
