1. An idiom referring to a situation where you're screwed no matter what you do; if you're literally holding a tiger by the tail, it won't attack you - until you let go of its tail. But you have to let go in order to run from it, and it WILL chase you down.
2. A song by country singer "Buck" Owens. Arguably his signature song.

I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losing weight and turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losing weight and turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Da assordid --- I mean, I mean, **assorted** --- stories of "getting lucky" dat two or more studs exchange around da card-table or at da bar-counter.
I detest listening to da miscellaneous "tail tales" of da various puffed-ego human stallions who gather at Duffy's Tavern... I mean, yeah, sure --- so maybe those hot chicks **did indeed** spread their legs for those virile crotch-cravers on those particular occasions, but what about any word of actual long-term friendships or relationships with said ladies??? Didn't those guys have any more respect or appreciation for these "willing" women beyond just their allowing said bush-hungry dudes to get in their pants??? I would rather take da time and effort to cause a gal to like and respect me as being a nice kind-hearted guy whom she'd actually **enjoy** lovingly cuddling up to and having sex wif, not just perform da simple ol' "wham, bam, thank you, Ma'am" routine wif her and then scuttle off again!

The mating call of a rare bird that inhabits the car engine. Identified by a loud screeching sound upon ignition (not to be confused by a worn out engine belt)
"Did you know that your car is making a loud screeching noise?"
"Yes, I think it's a red-tail piston bopper.
It's a mating call."
"Yes, I think it's a red-tail piston bopper.
It's a mating call."
