The Milk of Human Kindness (2009 Remaster)

(brooker / reid)When you knew that I had given all the kindness that I had

Did you think that it might be time to stop?

When you knew that I was through

That I'd done all I could do

Did you really have to milk the final drop?

Not content with my mistake

You behaved just like a snake

And you left me for a wasp without a sting

Tell all my friends back home

That I did it on my own

And that to their well-worn cares they should clingWhen you knew that I had given all the kindness that I had

Did you feel you had to break that lonely vow?

When you knew that I was through

That I'd done all I could do

Did you really have to sow that final plough?

Not content with my mistake, you behaved just like a snake

And you left me for a wasp without a sting

Tell all the folks back home that he did it on his own

And that to their well-worn cares they should cling
