Better
Place than Cages
(G.Gore)
first
i thought you were one of my women
then i found i was one of your men
found myself in a little metal canister
did some growing up but i’m not sure when
had
a dog, hated to walk it
one day i wished him dead and then he died
i was a man, i could get another one
i was a boy, locked my door and cried
and i cried
want and lust and need and love
couldn’t they get it straight before the dove took off
to find a better place
a better place than cages
i
used to think the sun orbited my aching head
then i found my scalp burned and charred
you get what you can, but that’s for another day
wanting what you have becomes unusually hard
had
a dog, hated to walk it
one day i wished him dead and then he died
i was a man, i could get another one
i was a boy, locked my door and cried
and i cried
want and lust and need and love
couldn’t they get it straight before the dove took off
to find a better place
a better place than cages
