Paris Paloma - Good Boy (Live in London)

So I wrote this song called good boyI have never seen submission Embodied half so well As in the feeble competition Between men with souls to sell And I have never seen a guard dog With less fearsome of a bite Than with its tail between its legs Found at the rich man’s side Look at him, he’s sweatingHe’s sweating from the climbOffice worker, soldier, CEOHe’s bleeding and he’s blind And I have never seen a creature More pitiful than himHe drinks power like saltwater All because he cannot swim Mouths open Servants of a higher power They told him“It's a staircase, it's a tower!” Full circle Wagging tails, wearing a collar Poor madman that’s what happens When you drink saltwaterBurned your tongue too early And realised too late The tragedy of losing Everything you’ll never taste The clearness of the river The honey on her tongue Door open to communion Being your father’s son And I would not expect you To witness what we know The songs sung in the dark timesThe fire in the snow We’ll be piling up our pyreAnd you defend your lordsAnd we will have our joyBut it will never be yoursMouths open Servants of a higher power They told him“It’s a staircase, it's a tower!” Full circleWagging tails, wearing a collar Even the dogs know not to drink saltwaterGood boy! You’re working exactly as intendedHas the penny dropped, you’re never gonna get it?Unrewarded for all of your defending From your loneliness epidemicGood boy! Has any of the money trickled down yet?You say one day you’ll be rich, well tell me how thenUnpaid marketing department for the powerGood boy! Good boy! BoyGood boy! Good boy!Mouths open (You’re working exactly as intended)Servants of a higher power (Has the penny dropped, you’re never gonna get it?)They told him(Unrewarded for all of your defending )“It's a staircase, it's a tower!” (From your loneliness epidemic)Full circle (Has any of the money trickled down yet?)Wagging tails, wearing a collar (You say one day you’ll be rich, well tell me how then)(Unpaid marketing department for the power)Even the dogs know not to drink saltwater
