Man Of Straw

[Verse 1]
Like confession whispered slowly
Hate's a word that's spoken softly
Horror fills his pretty scrapbook
A massacre won't change his outlook

[Pre-Chorus]
Like confession whispered slowly
Hate's a word that's spoken softly

[Chorus]
Oh, man of straw

[Verse 2]
Sheltered in his cut out lifestyle
If time were small, he'd be a sundial
Hope wrung dry with values static
"Save me", he cries, "from these fanatics"

[Pre-Chorus]
Standing lonely, trusting no one
In disarray with collar undone

[Chorus]
Oh, man of straw

[Verse 3]
Kicked again, he counts his blessings
But with no brain, he's always guessing
Standing lonely, trusting no one
In disarray with collar undone

[Pre-Chorus]
Like confession whispered slowly
Hate's a word that's spoken softly

[Chorus]
Oh, man of straw

[Pre-Chorus]
Like confession whispered slowly
Hate's a word that's spoken softly
Standing lonely, trusting no one
Disarray with collar undone
Horror fills his pretty scrapbook
But with no brain he's always guessing
