I am not a dog on a chain | |||
I use my own brain | |||
I can turn the conversation off | |||
I'm too clever to be robbed | |||
I am not a dog on a chain | |||
thanks all the same | |||
all my patience and all of my time | |||
are securely mine | |||
I hear the call, I hear a cry | |||
I raise my voice, I have no choice | |||
I raise my hand, I hammer twice | |||
there is no point in being nice | |||
I am not a dog on a chain | |||
I use my own brain | |||
I do not read 'news'papers | |||
they are trouble-makers | |||
listen out for what you're not being told | |||
and gently shield the soul | |||
in an easy and careless way | |||
they'll try to sculpture all your views | |||
So open up your nervous mouth | |||
confidence comes streaming out | |||
volume, pitch and rising cries | |||
opening your blinkered eyes | |||
otherwise you'll never know | |||
who you are or all that you could do | |||
but that's if you want to | |||
I am not a dog on a chain | |||
you've got to be insane | |||
one is company and two's a crowd | |||
you'll find as I have found | |||
Maybe I'll be skinned alive | |||
by Canada Goose | |||
because of my views | |||
Because of the truth | |||
because of my fleece | |||
because of my niece | |||
like drinking ink | |||
the words explode | |||
fatter than fists | |||
prouder than blows | |||
fatter than fists | |||
prouder than blows | |||
the dead are dead | |||
ice-cold and hard | |||
to where they can't | |||
be over-charged | |||
they have no breath | |||
they have no eyes | |||
at least they won't | |||
be dying twice. | |||
