Thick-necked Man Lyrics by Crash Test Dummies

Thick-necked Man Lyrics

    We're talkin' about a thick necked man in the city
    Build a pub a blood and sweat
    Swears by god he'll stand by justice
    He aint stood by justice yet
    He get's them drunk and gets their money
    They cash their welfare checks for stout
    Now he throws them into the street
    He's sucked you in, he'll spit you out

    This money-minded s.o.b.
    Will not a penny lend
    And all i can do is pray to god
    He'll suffer in the end

    We're talkin' 'bout thick-necked man in three-piece
    Killing from his office desk
    The many places he has been
    And many more he'll visit yet
    Without his mommy's pride & kisses
    Without his country's confidence
    Without the dying man's permission
    Without no guilt or consequence

    This bloody-minded s.o.b.
    Has not w ound to mend
    And all i can do is pray to god
    He'll suffer in the end

    Now we're talkin' 'bout a thick-necked man in a fist fight
    Losing lots of blood
    It's not his night, his boss is uptight
    His face and name are covered in mud
    He watches t.v., all star wrestling
    Slams a six of ale
    Hits his wife, wrecks the car
    And spends the long dark night in jail
    Well the preacher man, he comes and asks him
    Does he know the mess he's in?
    He says he'll turn to jesus if he'll
    Bail him out and buy him gin
