Crow

Dan Bern

All these questions start to stick to me like cancer

You talk and talk but I don't think I gotta answer

If that's what's meant by confirmation

I don't even want the nomination

Piss on it, piss on it

Throw it in the trash and kiss it



I will not eat crow for you or anyone else

I will not, I will patently not

Maybe someone else will crawl for you

Dress like a Barbie Doll for you

There's things I'm willing to chew on

But your crow is not one of them



I spent the last ten years trying to make your secretary happy with my style

And now that I've seen your trophies

Excuse me if I laugh a while

If that's the reward for suffering

Keep the stuff you're offering

Piss on it, piss on it

Throw it in the trash and kiss it



I will not eat crow for you or anyone else

I will not, I will patently not

Maybe someone else will be your rug

Jump in the six-foot hole you dug

There's things I'm willing to chew on

But your crow is not one of them



Take your turn, take your place

Take a walk out on my face

Try again, you can try to dance

But you'll never get the chance



'Cause I will not eat crow for you or anyone else

I will not, I will patently not

Maybe someone else will hurt for you

Squirt their blood in the dirt for you

There's things I'm willing to chew on

But your crow is not one of them
