Hair on the Arms and Legs (Demo 1968) lyrics
by Genesis
[Verse]
See him digging, see him weeding
Every single day of the year
Coffee at eleven, four-thirty tea
His security is built on routine
But inside his mind there's a lot going on
Planning the world, but it just don't do no good
[Refrain]
I say, what's the use?
[Chorus]
Population, starvation
His mind keeps working hard
Ending wars, changing laws
But all of them locked away
[Refrain]
I say, what's the use?
[Chorus]
Population, starvation
His mind keeps working hard
Ending wars, changing laws
But all of them locked away
[Outro]
In cessation, repetition
Funeral for an age of decay
Meditation, deep frustration
Caused our hairy friend to die
Here lies a man who failed to escape
Filled his small head with the worries that plaguе the world
I say, what's the use?
