Lyrics
I live in Tigerland, I'm an indiana man I'm used to walk around with a snake in my hann Dr Bombay is my name and my father has the same But everything it changed here in Tigerland *S.O.S. The tiger took my father S.O.S. The tiger took my brother S.O.S. The tiger took my mother S.O.S. The tiger took my family We lived outside Calcutta in a little wooden house I lived there with my family and 21 cows But now they all are gone and life is not so fun But what can you expect here in Tigerland *Repeat One day in the warm jungle the Tiger took my snake It wasn't really fun it was a big mistake I took my brother's slingshot and shot the tiger down This is how we do it here in Tigerland *Repeat

It's a high speed remix of the much talked about "S.O.S." from the previous album. The synth riffs that made such a strong impact are now even more powerful! We've packed this one with all the best parts of the game too, so be prepared for it.

It's as if S.O.S. has been reborn as happy hardcore. For the movie, I tried to guess the symbolism of "CYBER-BEAT-NATION," which is the subtitle of the 3rd style. S.O.S., which was thought to be all about gags, combined with the comical drama of the movie . was great too, but the speed was increased, and it was more intense, or perhaps dangerously upper, than It's in style, and this one is as good as it gets. Is this the cyber-beating phenomenon? So, to this movie.
