Verse

Say one thing and then do another

Bunker down in your alsatian den

We 'aint got room for your politics here

Politicians make a bad name for the con-man

Verse

And water felt like burning metal

Set off by a dying sun

Them women they circle

Like covered wagons crying

Their loved ones back from where they, gone

Refrain

And I'll not give

Myself to the ground

I kill more than I

Live so slowly

Live so slowly
