Beautiful South - If We Crawl Lyrics
If we crawl at 2, we crawl at 22And the grovel at the drop of a hatAnd once they’ve got you down thereIt’s hard to re-straighten your backIf we crawl at 2, we can crawl at 102And the target brainless don’t quite reachCovered so kindly in your opening speechIs tiny crab of thoughtOn a sideways beachLet lessons not the pupils teachJustice not the lessers breachAnd the maggots not have fingerWagged at by leechWell I made sure I wrote this song in BrailleSo you could touch the words, the words that sailFrom my mouth back to the jailYou could touch the words that sailFrom the mouth back to the jailThat is posing as tongueCurtsies, bows, thank you sirs and the wearing of a business suitLead to complaints of backache and end with the Nazi saluteAnd once they’ve got you down thereIt’s so hard to re-straighten your backIf we crawl at 2, we can crawl at 222
