Swing - Lowlife

We could do with going anywhere

somewhere that we could swing

I could do with going anytime

as long as I could swing

sometimes I see almost anywhere

the prostitution of talents

but I’m so busy trying to bury this

when almost everyone has been stripped

now stripped and starved of stature

but still must suckle the young

I can not impose upon myself

or even get a grip on my tongue

we have lost what we can not renew

that which I care for and regard

regarded as the most precious thing

we’ve lost the reason to swing
