The Vulture - Labi Siffre

They call me the vulture cause that’s my name

I fly high, around the town, looking for game

Any girl who’s lost her man i’m by her side, as fast as i can

And i tell her things that she wants to hear, i’m an evil man

Oh oh oh i’m a vulture

I say, now that is over what you gonna do

I’m so sad that you’re on your own

And your heart is a shelter

That man is gone and is gone for good

He’s gone and he’s never coming back

And the love that you had that was beautiful

But it’s dead that is a fact

If you’re looking for consolation you don’t have to look no more

And i fold my wings around the girl i’ve made it for sure

Oh oh i’m a vulture

When i fly into town the work is around

The vulture’s here you’d better tie your baby down

Take a girl for a drink, take her out for something to eat

Leave her just for a little while, take a nature retreat

By the time, i’ve made it back, i’ve got a name, address and a date

And you can see by the far away look in her eyes

That you’ve made it there much too late

Oh oh oh i’m a vulture

Vulture’s got class, vulture’s got style

Vulture can heal her, with a look or a smile

Vulture’s in town, so you’d better beware

Married or single, i just don’t care

Oh oh oh i’m a vulture
