Mel Cooleys - Two Men Lyrics
Count them on your fingersWith fingers left to spareTurn your head, blink your eyesThey're no longer thereTwo men, Two menDrinking in the cornerWaiting for their wishShooting for the young onesBarrels full of fishTwo men, Two menPrinted in the papersNews that you can trustDresses us in stretch-pantsCovers us with dustThere were two menThere were two menThere were two menAnd three of usTake it slow and steadyToughen up your heartTake longer to get readyYou're further from the startTwo men, Two menWaking in the new worldWith men who have to breedBreaking in the new girlJohnny AppleseedTwo men, Two menShorter in the saddleSmaller in the bustKept away from battlesAnything can rustThere were two menThere were two menThere were two menAnd three of usSome go out too oftenSome come on too slickSome speak really softly(But carry a big stick)Some of us are grayingSome of them are baldNone of us are chosenBut all of us are calledKnit another sweaterPick another flowerDream of getting betterNot older by the hourTwo men, Two menTake it like an eyesoreDisposable and quickFewer men to die forMore of us to pickTwo men, Two menHeed the living legendFeeding off his lustLeads us to the edge andThrows a little crustThere were two menThere were two menThere were two men.....
