Even Men With Steel Hearts Songtext / Lyric

Hey Louis…



Wonderful world, terrible song

Everything's gone horribly wrong

Cars are too fast, 'cos the drivers are slow

Joy-ride boy died and I think to myself

From Magdalene to Sellafield

There's scant regard for how we feel

Sheep are green, dead roses too

I know it sounds bleak but hey, don't despair






Cos even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch

Even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch

It generates a warmth around the ground that augurs well for mankind

And that's what life's about



The raft of dreams we sailed in the bay

Has foundered on the reefs of today

Ill wind blows through my cape of no hope

Dock Road can-lad on the end of a rope

Yet by the stream in summer time

The charming lark, the country chime

Smite this faithless pantomime

Welcome to the daylight at the back of my mind



Even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch

Even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch

It generates a warmth around the ground that augurs well for mankind

And that's what life's about



Trouble is these days you never see a dog on the pitch.
