David Keenan - Beggar to Beggar lyrics
[David Keenan - Beggar to Beggar lyrics]
Come in from the cold
So I'm told if you lay your
Hat it becomes your home
You say one thing and I'll do the other
People leave like it's a removal
Still the dogs bark their disapproval
You say one thing and I'll do the other
A beggar to a beggar cried I'll place
Two coins on your dead eyes
And I'll grieve the passing of a saint
For circumstance left life short and sweet
From left to right we'd hop and bounce
From wall to wall in that council house
You say one thing and I'll do the other
People leave like it's a removal still
The dogs bark their disapproval
You say one thing and I'll do the other
A beggar to a beggar cried
I'll place two coins on your dead eyes
And I'll grieve the passing of a saint
For circumstance left life short and sweet
The pebbles you kicked from the houses
They'd fall and they'd flow
The pebbles you kicked from the houses
They'd fall and they'd flow
The pebbles you kicked from the houses
They'd fall and they'd flow
Kick your heels in the clouds
Man roll man roll a beggar to a beggar cried
I'll place two coins on your dead eyes
And I'll grieve the passing of a saint
For circumstance left life short and sweet
So I'm told if you lay your
Hat it becomes your home
You say one thing and I'll do the other
People leave like it's a removal
Still the dogs bark their disapproval
You say one thing and I'll do the other
A beggar to a beggar cried I'll place
Two coins on your dead eyes
And I'll grieve the passing of a saint
For circumstance left life short and sweet
From left to right we'd hop and bounce
From wall to wall in that council house
You say one thing and I'll do the other
People leave like it's a removal still
The dogs bark their disapproval
You say one thing and I'll do the other
A beggar to a beggar cried
I'll place two coins on your dead eyes
And I'll grieve the passing of a saint
For circumstance left life short and sweet
The pebbles you kicked from the houses
They'd fall and they'd flow
The pebbles you kicked from the houses
They'd fall and they'd flow
The pebbles you kicked from the houses
They'd fall and they'd flow
Kick your heels in the clouds
Man roll man roll a beggar to a beggar cried
I'll place two coins on your dead eyes
And I'll grieve the passing of a saint
For circumstance left life short and sweet
