Everybody lines up for a s**le 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
