The Cage

Text písně

Have you ever lived in a cage
Where you live to be whipped and be tamed?
For I've never loved in a cage,
Or talked to a friend or just waved.

Well, I walk while they talk about virtue,
Just raised on my back legs and snarled,
Watched you kiss your old daddy with passion,
And tell dirty jokes as he died.

But I'm damned when I really care there,
For the cellar's the room in your lives
Where you lace yourself with bad whiskey,
And close the cage doors on your life.

Well, I pray while you bathe in bad water,
Sing songs that I learnt as a boy,
Then break all the bones in my body
On the bars you can never destroy.

Have you ever lived in a cage
Where you live to be whipped and be tamed?
For I've never loved in a cage,
Or talked to a friend or just waved.
