Gus Dudgeon - The Cage lyrics

[Chorus] Have you ever lived in a cage Where you live to be whipped and be tamed For I've never loved in a cage Or talked to a friend or just waved [Verse 1] Well I walk while they talk about virtue Just raised on my back legs and snarled Watched you kiss your old daddy with pa**ion And tell dirty jokes as he died But I'm damned when I really care there For the cellar's the room in your lives Where you lace yourself with bad whiskey And close the cage doors on your life Well I pray while you bathe in bad water Sing songs that I learnt as a boy Then breaks all the bones in my body On the bars you can never destroy [Chorus]
