lyrics

Because they’re on Concrete
You have to give them lots of vitamin C
Because they’re in Buildings
You have to give them minerals that they need

They’ll never feel the sun, on their backs
There’ll never be deficiency ‘cos there’s no lack
Of essential things so that they can live
They can’t expect to live for free so they must give

Because they’re on Concrete
You have to keep them tied up all of the time
Because they’re on Concrete
You have to tether them for your peace of mind

They’ll never feel the sun, on their backs
They can’t expect to live for free lie down and relax
So you trim them up, for their own good
They’d only make some mischief if they felt they could

What’s all the fuss, just a bunch of Animals

Because they’re on Concrete
They wouldn’t know what to do with a field
Because they’re in Buildings
You now have so much more control of their yield

They’ll never feel the sun, on their backs
They can’t expect to live for free lie down and relax
So you trim them up, for their own good
They’d only kick and scratch and bite if only they could

KICK, SCRATCH, BITE, SHOVE

What’s all the fuss, just a bunch of animals
