The Poor Sod - Jake Thackray[00:00:00]

Working another man's field[00:00:04]

His only colleague the crawling beetle[00:00:07]

His only neighbour the Moorside and the stone wall[00:00:10]

Blind as the blundering mole[00:00:17]

Nothing he did ever came to aught[00:00:20]

Couple of times that he stole[00:00:24]

He was easily caught[00:00:26]

Poor as the shivering bird[00:00:31]

Seated alone in his cold kitchen[00:00:34]

He sings a snatch of an old[00:00:37]

Song which he once heard[00:00:40]

Under his thin eiderdown[00:00:44]

Thinking of days that[00:00:47]

Have gone before[00:00:49]

The night years ago in a Town he clung to a young whore[00:00:51]

The bramble bush catches his sleeve[00:00:58]

The blackthorn catches his cheekbone[00:01:01]

When will the North Country[00:01:04]

Leave the poor sod alone[00:01:06]
