Waifs & Strays

Welcome in the waifs and strays, my love
Then tell them how they must behave, my love

They can see you coming from a distance
They can heal your hunger in an instance
The sacrifice, it fuels the here and now, now, now...
Pull the plug, then offer no resistance
Tell them you're rewarding their persistance
The sacrifice it makes you feel so now, now, now...

This breaking heart
Makes the same old sound
It always lets you down
This bleeding heart
Stains the same old ground
It always lets you down

Welcome in the waifs and strays, my dear
Clasp them to your beating chest, my dear

They can see you coming from a distance
They can heal your hunger in an instance
The sacrifice, it fuels the here and now, now, now...
Pull the plug, then offer no resistance
Tell them you're rewarding their persistance
The sacrifice it makes you feel so now, now, now...

This breaking heart
Makes the same old sound
It always lets you down
This bleeding heart
Stains the same old ground
It always lets you down

It always lets you down
This bleeding heart
Stains the same old ground
It always lets you down
