Dandi Wind Drawing Straws
[Verse 1, x2]
Everybody lines up for a suckle
Easy slide to their knees, ready to buckle
Watching 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
[Verse 2]
From the line's 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?
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Begging all day for a scrap or handout
Destroy one another vain hopes to stand out
Why shove when there's twigs enough for all
Just take them from the jaundiced claw
[Chorus]
[Verse 1, x4]
[Chorus]
