The Poor Sod (2006 Remaster) - Jake Thackray |
| [00:04.57] |
Working another man's field |
| [00:07.72] |
His only colleague the crawling beetle |
| [00:11.21] |
His only neighbour the |
| [00:13.05] |
Moorside and the stone wall |
| [00:17.76] |
Blind as the blundering mole |
| [00:21.14] |
Nothing he did ever came to aught; |
| [00:24.50] |
Couple of times that he stole |
| [00:26.75] |
He was easily caught |
| [00:31.22] |
Poor as the shivering bird |
| [00:34.44] |
Seated alone in his cold kitchen |
| [00:37.92] |
He sings a snatch of an old |
| [00:40.36] |
Song which he once heard |
| [00:44.72] |
Under his thin eiderdown |
| [00:48.06] |
Thinking of days that |
| [00:49.61] |
Have gone before: |
| [00:51.23] |
The night years ago in a |
| [00:53.19] |
Town he clung to a young whore |
| [00:58.28] |
The bramble bush catches his sleeve |
| [01:01.48] |
The blackthorn catches his cheekbone; |
| [01:05.12] |
When will the North Country |
| [01:06.59] |
Leave the poor sod alone |
