The Trapper and the Furrier |
| The trapper and the furrier went walking through paradise |
| And all the animals lay clawless and toothless before them |
| And all the mothers stepped away from their babies |
| Leaving them open and easy to handle |
| The trapper and the furrier went walking through paradise |
| They took some for now and they got some for later |
| And they marveled at the pelts, not a bullet hole in them |
| And they filled up the cages with pets for their children |
| What a strange, strange world we live in |
| Where the good are damned and the wicked forgiven |
| What a strange, strange world we live in |
| Those who don’t have lose, those who got get given |
| More, more, more, more |
| The owner and the manager went walking through paradise |
| And all the shelves were filled with awards and achievements |
| And on every corner, a power presentation |
| And on every floor, an army of workers |
| The owner and the manager went walking through paradise |
| And all their charts showed so much promise and progress |
| No sick days, no snow days, no unions, no taxes |
| And they wandered towards home, kings of their castles |
| What a strange, strange world we live in |
| Where the good are damned and the wicked forgiven |
| What a strange, strange world we live in |
| Those who don’t have lose, those who got get given |
| More, more, more, more |
| The lawyer and the pharmacist went walking through paradise |
| And all the sick were around them with fevers unbreaking |
| Crying and bleeding and coughing and shaking |
| And arms outstretched, prescription-collecting |
| The lawyer and the pharmacist went walking through paradise |
| Pressed suits in a courtroom, aroma of chloroform |
| And they smiled at the judge, disposition so sunny |
| Cause they didn’t have the cure but sure needed the money |
| What a strange, strange world we live in |
| Where the good are damned and the wicked forgiven |
| What a strange, strange world we live in |
| Those who don’t have lose, those who got get given |
| More, more, more, more |
| More, more, more, more |
| More, more, more, more |
| More, more, more, more |
| More, more, more, more |
