|
I'm a bit like a soldier |
|
In the way |
|
I wear no uniform |
|
And choose not to fight |
|
And fight all night |
|
For some other cause |
|
I'm a bit like the grave digger |
|
Who wields no shovel |
|
And digs no hole |
|
But leaves the bodies to rot |
|
In the places that they stand |
|
For some other cause |
|
I'm a bit like the pack mule |
|
Carrying no load |
|
Into the canyons of your jive |
|
For some other cause |
|
I'm a bit like the freelance fence painter |
|
Then eyes your backside as you leave |
|
For some other cause |
|
I'm a bit like the peephole |
|
That falls in love with all the eyes |
|
That look through |
|
Watching major things unfold |
|
From minor flaws |
|
For some other cause (Have Mercy) |
