Lyrics


1. YOU'RE A BETTER MAN THAN

Can you judge a man by the way he wears his hair
Can you read his mind by the clothes that he wears
Can you see a fat man by the pattern on his tie

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
Could you tell a wise man by the way he speaks or spells
Is this more important than the stories that he tells
And call a man a fool if for wealth he doesn't strive

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
Can you condemn a man if your faith he doesn't hold
Say the colour of his skin is the colour of his soul
Can you say that men for king and country all must die

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I


2.GIVE A DOG A BONE

The writing's on the wall
Saying what are you gonna do
Now the kids are turning round
Running back over open ground

You're frustrated by a life that owns you
Everybody's bought and sold you
We're all up for sale

Where do you run and hide
When the lead has been untied
They didn't give what you need
But what you want you don't receive

You're frustrated by a life that owns you
Everybody's bought and sold you
We're all up for sale

Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own
Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own

The master knows your name
Come here you take the blame
I've seen your face before
You must be a prostitute whore

You're frustrated by a life that owns you
Everybody's bought and sold you
We're all up for sale

Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own
Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own

Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own
Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own

Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own
Give a dog a bone
Then leave him on his own

Give a dog a bone
