Dan Bern - Crow Lyrics

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
