Suzi Quatro, 1973
Written by Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn
Once you get past the nonsensical title, this song features extended and wire-thin imagery in which your boyfriend is an eagle and some woman ("mama"?) is the tiger, and they fight? Apparently the title phrase is meant to convey something impossible — you can't put a can inside a can, the same way you can't contain your man if he's out there prowling for other, uh, wild cats, I guess. I remain dubious. Lyrics aside, it's a decent by-the-numbers rocker, and Quatro has enough attitude to sell it.
