Due South movie - Bone of Contention lyrics

rate me

And you grabbed it by the hand

And he pulled and pulled 'till someone pushed and then he fell

On the front page of America

And all the bright stars

Came out and shone in his defense

Rehabilitation

What a joke

Is it off to Betty Ford for the handy bloke?

(Chorus:)

And the bone

Of contention

Has all

Our attention

The bone

Of contention

Was all

Our invention

Gonna burn the playhouse down

Death by his own hands

When the black cat crossed his path and stayed

As close as the tattoo

It never fades

For the Saturday morning man

The lots have all been cast

The joke's no longer with him

It's about him, at him, on him

(Chorus)

You pull your wire they stack the pyre we light the fire

You pull your wire they stack the pyre we light the fire

You pull your wire they stack the pyre we light the fire

You pull your wire

They stack the pyre

We light the

Fire

(Chorus whispered in background)

(Chorus sung)

I'm gonna burn the playhouse down (the bone... of contention)

Come on and burn the playhouse down (has all... our attention)

I'm gonna burn the playhouse down (the bone... of contention)

I'm gonna burn the playhouse down (the bone... of contention)

Down, down, down, down
