John Wesley Harding - Eating Each Other's Babies lyrics

Your rating:

She flares up, they start to fight

A chemical reaction late into the night

Once they're out of love, now they're outta sight

That's alright

When silence reigns, it's strange weather

Why do you have to leave me for a man

Who couldn't tie his shoe-laces together?

He's had the last laugh but the joke's on him

He could've had a final bang but drags on with a whimper

    When dogs bark 

    And when cats meow

    Two humans are the animals they knew they could be now

    Sniffing round each other's dirt

    Fighting til it starts to hurt

    And eating each other's babies



Paperback's get thrown, the story unfolds

Two lost sheep who couldn't find the fold

They got no common sense, couldn't catch the common cold

I've been told

She fights tooth and claw, he starts to abuse her

You show me someone who takes losing well

And I'll show you a loser

He's a very small man wearing very big clothes

There's no room for expansion but there's plenty of room for growth

    When dogs bark

    And when cats meow

    Two humans fighting middleweight, instead of middlebrow

    Picking on those little things

    Tearing off each other's wings

    And eating each other's babies



We're stuck here in this cage

Playing out this prison game

Committing all these war crimes

Time after time after time after time after time



Something clicks, time to get soft

She's getting on, he's getting off

On the way she splutters with her little cough

That's enough

They're so adept, he used to spoil her

Sometimes we get so see through 

Think I'm living out some potboiler

Remember me forever in your gallery

When all your past is catalogued and filed alphabetically

    When dogs bark

    And when cats meow

    We don't have to say anything final now

    Let's kiss and make up

    Put off the break up

    Let's eat each other's babies

    Let's eat each other's babies

    Let's eat each other's babies
