I can’t stand it, I can’t bear another refrain
Another catalog of disasters under the falling rain
The newsprint smears my skin, the tears that sting my eyes
I see these babies – they are not wise
Until you –
foot and mouth
Until you – foot and mouth
Until you – foot and mouth
Burning carcasses on the horizon, another one is dying
I know nothing,
but I need somebody to blame
And I’m falling to pieces on this Wednesday train
See the wide open space of this most innocent face
This creature has never know disgrace
Until you –
foot and mouth
Until you – foot and mouth
Until you – foot and mouth
Burning carcasses on the horizon, another one is dying
Burning carcasses on the horizon, another one is dying
Foot and mouth
Foot and mouth
Foot and mouth
