[The Inchtabokatables - Confined Love lyrics]
Some man unworthy to be possesor
Of old or new love himself
Being false or weak
Thought his pain and shame would be lesser
From womankind he might his anger wreak
Hey, and thence a law did grow
One should but one man know
But are other creatures so?
But are other creatures so?
Are sun, moon, or stars by law forbidden
To smile where they list or
Lend away their light?
Are birds divorced or are they chidden
If they leave their maid
Or lie abroad a night?
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose
But we are made worse than those
But we are made worse than those
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose
But we are made worse than those
But we are made worse than those
Who e'er rigged fair ship to lie in harbours
And not to seek new lands
Or not to deal with all?
Or built fair houses, set trees, and arbours
Only to lock up, or else to let them fall?
Hey, and thence a law did grow
One should but one man know
But are other creatures so?
But are other creatures so?
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose
But we are made worse than those
But we are made worse than those
Good is not good, unless
A thousand it possess
But doth waste with greediness
But doth waste with greediness
Hey, and thence a law did grow
One should but one man know
But are other creatures so?
But are other creatures so?
Of old or new love himself
Being false or weak
Thought his pain and shame would be lesser
From womankind he might his anger wreak
Hey, and thence a law did grow
One should but one man know
But are other creatures so?
But are other creatures so?
Are sun, moon, or stars by law forbidden
To smile where they list or
Lend away their light?
Are birds divorced or are they chidden
If they leave their maid
Or lie abroad a night?
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose
But we are made worse than those
But we are made worse than those
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose
But we are made worse than those
But we are made worse than those
Who e'er rigged fair ship to lie in harbours
And not to seek new lands
Or not to deal with all?
Or built fair houses, set trees, and arbours
Only to lock up, or else to let them fall?
Hey, and thence a law did grow
One should but one man know
But are other creatures so?
But are other creatures so?
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose
But we are made worse than those
But we are made worse than those
Good is not good, unless
A thousand it possess
But doth waste with greediness
But doth waste with greediness
Hey, and thence a law did grow
One should but one man know
But are other creatures so?
But are other creatures so?
