The Milk Of Human Kindness

(Brooker / Reid)
When you knew that
I had given all the kindness that
I had did you think that it might be time to stop?
When you knew that
I was through that
Id done all
I could do did you really have to milk the final drop?
Not content with my mistake you behaved just like a snake and you left me for a wasp without a sting
Tell all my friends back home that
I did it on my own and that to their well-worn cares they should cling
When you knew that
I had given all the kindness that
I had did you feel you had to break that lonely vow?
When you knew that
I was through that
Id done all
I could do did you really have to sow that final plough?
Not content with my mistake, you behaved just like a snake and you left me for a wasp without a sting
Tell all the folks back home that he did it on his own and that to their well-worn cares they should cling
