Drawing Straws Songtext
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



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?


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
