Analysis of You're A Raven
You're a tiger. You're a cat.
You're a stalker in combat.
You're a rabbit. You're a hare.
You're a steady love affair.
You're a cobra. You're a snake.
You're a killer on the take.
You're a gibbon. You're an ape.
You're an artist of escape.
You're a raven. You're a bird.
You're a hunter in a herd.
You're a thresher. You're a shark.
You're a panic by remark.
You're a rodent. You're a rat.
You're a foodie for all fat.
You're a person. You're a child.
You're a hobo in a wild.
