Milk Of Human Kindness
Procol Harum
Milk Of Human Kindness
Verse 1:
When you knew that I had given
All the kindness that I had
Did you think that it might be time to stop
When you knew that I was through
That I'd done all I could do
Did you really have to milk the final drop
Chorus:
Not content with my mistake
You behaved just like a snake
And left me for a wasp without a sting
Tell all [1: my friends 2: the folks] back home
That [1: I 2: he] did it on [1: my 2: his] own
And that to their well-worn cares they should cling
Instrumental break:
guitar solo:
Verse 2:
When you knew that I had given
All the kindness that I had
Did you feel you had to break that lonely vow
When you knew that I was through
That I'd done all I could do
Did you really have to sow that final plow
[repeat chorus]
[repeat instrumental break]
