The Gleaners |
Did you ever try to visualise |
One million milk bottles on your front step? |
Would you have a plan what to do with them |
Maybe make a mountain which you can climb? |
Maybe crush it up and ship it off |
To another country out of your mind |
The Gleaners are right, the Gleaners are wise |
To use the things everyday folk leave behind |
The Gleaners are right, the Gleaners have rights |
All hail the magpie, the second-handers |
There’s something wrong if we provide |
Enough to live on from the waste we leave behind |
And by the by, would you recognise |
The voice of Al Bowly blaring out of a caravan? |
Defiantly distorted in |
The morning sunshine across the canal |
The Gleaners are right, the Gleaners are wise |
To use the things everyday folk leave behind |
The Gleaners are right, the Gleaners have rights |
All hail the magpie, the second-handers |
There’s something wrong if we provide |
Enough to live on from the waste we leave behind |
The Gleaners are right |
The Gleaners are right |
