The Hunt
(Difford, Tilbrook)
B-side to 'Black Coffee In Bed', 1982
Give a man a gun, give him a cigar
He'll think about a shot sitting at a bar
Strip him of his clothes, stand him in the light
Sweat upon his brow, frightened by the sight
Draw him like a bow, aim him at the world
He pretends to know and then he'll swim up to the rocks
He'll be beaten by the fox
Give a man a drink, give a man the time
Drink into his thoughts bottled up inside
He'll tell a few jokes, stumble in the dark
Trips upon the stairs, he's fallen apart
Draw him like a bow, aim him at the world
He pretends to know and then he'll swim up to the rocks
He'll be beaten by the fox
(instrumental w/guitar solo)
Beaten by the fox (repeat til fade)
