[Verse 1]
In a big town called L.A
Where no one walks nowhere
We walked to the County Museum
Just me and my brother
My friend and my mother
Just doing a little sightseeing
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We checked out some textiles
Some sculptures of reptiles
When a strange picture caught my eye
Big room filled with lions
So peaceful and quiet
With a young man standing so calmly by
With a young man standing so calmly by
[Chorus]
It was Daniel in the lions' den
It was Daniel in the lions' den
By American painter named Henry O. Tanner
It was Daniel in the lions' den
[Verse 2]
Well, you know I love lions
But I don't love dying
So I've never gotten too close
They've got powerful paws
And bone crushing jaws
And sharp claws on each of their toes
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But Daniel's serene
And the lions just preen
And I suddenly see what it all means
If I'm a good fellow
And peaceful and mellow
I'll have lions protecting me
I'll have lions protecting me
[Chorus]
Just like Daniel in the lions' den
Daniel in the lions' den
By American painter named Henry O. Tanner
It was Daniel in the lions' den
[Chorus]
It was Daniel in the lions' den
It was Daniel in the lions' den
It was Daniel in the lions' den
It was Daniel in the lions' den
It was Daniel in the lions' den
It was Daniel in the lions' den
By American painter named Henry O. Tanner
It was Daniel in the lions' den
