The Rabbit Skinner |
| Who’ll do for him |
| Child of the 50's |
| With no common sense |
| And no easy resting place |
| Only lichen on beeches |
| Oil on gun barrel |
| And the hard taste of pennies |
| A gardener’s folly |
| Stands as proud as you please |
| The lungs won’t fill, the heart won’t start |
| Landlocked child of the seas |
| And he alone is a man without qualities |
| Combed his body for disorders |
| But the disease lived on in far off quarters |
| As a God everything was filled to excess |
| As a man he settled for less |
| Here lies the rabbit skinner |
| God love the rabbit skinner |
| A life without purchase |
| No story to tell |
| And three little bitches fight where he fell |
| Foxes, foxes, give her a sign |
| Enter the little girl and show her what’s mine |
| Play hard and fast with the rules if you please |
| Here lies a man without qualities |
