Lyrics
The Old Dog
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Casual sex with a hard up thug
shifting good time drugs and...
A human is hauled
from the wombs
wired jaw.
We are liberal
and
We are civil
and
Life is futile
Darling I regret there's
life in the old dog yet
