Mel Cooleys - Two Men lyrics

Count them on your fingers With fingers left to spare Turn your head, blink your eyes They're no longer there Two men, Two men Drinking in the corner Waiting for their wish Shooting for the young ones Barrels full of fish Two men, Two men Printed in the papers News that you can trust Dresses us in stretch-pants Covers us with dust There were two men There were two men There were two men And three of us Take it slow and steady Toughen up your heart Take longer to get ready You're further from the start Two men, Two men Waking in the new world With men who have to breed Breaking in the new girl Johnny Appleseed Two men, Two men Shorter in the saddle Smaller in the bust Kept away from battles Anything can rust There were two men There were two men There were two men And three of us Some go out too often Some come on too slick Some speak really softly (But carry a big stick) Some of us are graying Some of them are bald None of us are chosen But all of us are called Knit another sweater Pick another flower Dream of getting better Not older by the hour Two men, Two men Take it like an eyesore Disposable and quick Fewer men to die for More of us to pick Two men, Two men Heed the living legend Feeding off his lust Leads us to the edge and Throws a little crust There were two men There were two men There were two men.....
