Neill MacColl - Draw The Line lyrics

Well we had to pull on something So we're grabbing at the threads And now the world's unravelling Inside our very heads Gla**es smeared with lipstick Hungry eyes out in the street Same old bodies moving To the same old beat Had to draw the line Had to draw the line All this talk can hypnotize you and We can ill afford To give ourselves to sentiment When our time is oh so short There are names beneath the lichen On these cemetery stones And carnivals of silverfish Waiting to dance upon our bones Have to draw the line Need to draw the line Had to draw the line I‘ve been doubting yours baby I've been doubting mine I've been out of circulation Where the sun don't shine I've been doubting fame and wealth Charity, even Love itself Draw the line I ain't saying he's bad baby I ain't saying he's good Merely that he ain't so different Neath his executioners hood In the name of liberty In the name of brotherhood Have to draw the line Have to draw the line Need to take some pride baby Need to take some heart Need to take evasive action When the rumpus start Here we are buck naked baby But where should we begin When it's not the flesh we're after But the howlin' ghost within Have to draw the line Need to draw the line Had to draw the line Need to draw the line Have to draw the line Pack your bags we're going home Help me draw the line Pack your bags we're going yeah Had to draw the line Pack your bags we're going home Need to draw the line Pack your bags we're going yeah Had to draw the line Pack your bags we're going home Had to draw the line
