Men - Loudon Wainwright III[00:00:00]

Written by：Loudon Wainwright III[00:00:00]

When a ship is sinking and[00:00:14]

They lower the lifeboats[00:00:17]

And hand out the life jackets[00:00:20]

The men keep on their coats[00:00:23]

The women and the children are the ones[00:00:28]

Who must go first[00:00:32]

And the men who try to save their skins[00:00:34]

Are cowards and are cursed[00:00:37]

Every man's a captain men know how to drown[00:00:44]

Man the lifeboats if[00:00:49]

There's room otherwise go down[00:00:50]

And it's the same when[00:01:11]

There's a war on[00:01:13]

It's the men who go to fight[00:01:15]

Women and children are civilians[00:01:18]

When they're killed it's not right[00:01:21]

Men kill men in uniform it's the way war goes[00:01:26]

When they run they're cowards[00:01:32]

When they stay they are heroes[00:01:35]

Every man's a general men go off to war[00:01:41]

The battlefields a man's world[00:01:47]

Cannon fodders what they're for[00:01:49]

It's the men who have the power[00:02:17]

It's the men who have the might[00:02:19]

And the world's a place of horror[00:02:23]

Because each man thinks he's right[00:02:25]

A man's home is his castle[00:02:31]

So the family let him in[00:02:33]

But what's important in that kingdom[00:02:37]

Is the women and the children[00:02:40]

A husband and a father every man's a king[00:02:46]

But he's really just a drone[00:02:51]

Gathers no honey has no sting[00:02:53]

Have pity on the general[00:02:57]

The king and the captain[00:03:00]

They know they're expendable[00:03:04]

After all they're men[00:03:07]
