Testo di Drawing Straws

1. Everybody lines up for a suckle Easy slide to their knees ready to buckle Watchin it sure enough serves to baffle But they're all heart splayed for the raffle CHORUS It's a straw draw at the meat trough On their knees again for the boss Straw draw at the meat trough On their knees again for the boss 2. From the lines-end standing on my tiptoes Crane to see just how far this line goes Are they packed ten, hundred, thousand deep How far does desperation reach? 3. Begging all day for a scrap or handout Destroy one another vain hopes to standout Why shove / when there's twigs enough for all Just Take them from the jaundiced claw
