Natalie Merchant - The Lion's Share lyrics

[Verse 1:] Can i be unhappy? Look at what i see A beast in furs and crowned in luxury He's a wealthy man in the poorest land A self-appointed king And there's no complaining while he's reigning [Pre-Chorus:] The lambs are bare of fleece and cold The lion has stolen that, i'm told There must be some creature mighty as you are [Chorus:] The lambs go hungry (not fair) The biggest portion is the lion's share There must be some creature mighty as you are [Bridge:] Can i be unhappy? Listen and agree No words can shame him or tame him [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Verse 2:] Razor claws in velvet paws You dunce in your guarded home 'til a stronger beast will call on you and Pounce upon your throne Do we pay? Dearly, for the lion takes so greedily And he knows that what he's taken, it is ours That's how the wealth's divided Among the lambs and king of the beasts It is so one-sided Until the lamb is king of the beasts We live so one-sided
