CALL OFF THE DOGS

Call off the dogs I say now, call off the dogs
There's only so many pints of blood, so call off your dogs
Like I said there's nothin' doin', and you say the same to me
Time and time and time again, there's nowt to do for free
The only time we add up is to promptly take away
Incurring debts without safety nets, try to keep the dogs at bay

Call off the dogs I say now, call off the dogs
There's only so many pints of blood, so call off your dogs
Like he said there's nothin' doin', and she turned the other cheek
No amount of sense, can make eighty five pence last another fuckin' week
They sit, they wait, they ponder, but no amount of thought
Can buy, disguise or materialise, the things that can't be bought

Call off the dogs I say now, call off the dogs
There's only so many pounds of flesh, so call off your dogs
And still there's nothin' doin', but we've only ourselves to blame
Abolish job search and bring back the birch, but who's gonna make a fresh claim?
So if you want your fuckin' bounty, you can take it out of my shit
After all I'm a yob and I ain't got a job, and if I did I'd quit

Keep your wolves from my door, keep your wolves from my door
Call off the dogs I say now, call off the dogs
You can keep your fuckin' handouts, but just call off your dogs
Call off the dogs I say now, call off the dogs
If we ain't fuckin' got it you can't fuckin' have it, so call off your dogs
