Tiger By The Tail

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

This original mistake was refined and redesigned and has now been patented, in line to help promote the expansion of personal food production thanx to "enviromo...more than a name, itz a concept"
