Brothers Lyrics

Daevid Allen Brothers

i'm singin a song about a lonely guy
walking alone in the rain
he looks at the faces as they wander by
but they're all the same

his friends in his hometown are far away
his lovers are lost in a dream
he turns and he walks into a parlour game
he puts his hands out to touch
what he wants O so much
but its all double dutch
oh oh
what should he do know
could this be you

so teach me about emotions oo oo ooh
laugh at my devotion oo oo ooh
when god knows i've tried
to walk side by side
and keep my feelings inside of me

oh my poor brothers my friends
the women just ain't who they used to be
relationship's come to an end
without dignity

oh what it was to be a man
so proud so respected so strong
so tell me where did we go wrong
where the women give birth
and inherit an earth
where a man has no worth
oh oh
the game is over
no pleasing her
you know
the pleasers are the losers oo oo ooh
the abused become the abusers oo oo ooh

maybe i'm a fool
mute as a mule
keepin my cool

poor men
the women just aint who they used to be
nobody told me nothin bout that

my momma she done told me
SITDOWN there & EAT YR TEA boy
take off yr DIRTY SOX & leave em t'ME boy
you better GET yr SeLF a GAL To CaRE for
YE boy

but

"My GAL..

ANGER!!!

ANGER BECAUSE I GOT EXPECTATIONS
ANGER COS I WANT SEX-UAL RELATIONS
ANGER COS SHE SAY I DONT OWN HER
ANGRY COS I DONT OWN MY OWN BONER
but

WAIT A MINUTE MAMA!

RIGHT UP THE GARDEN PATH
& INTO THE DOGHOUSE....
