<br>

THIS HUDDLING IN MY COAT, THIS GYPSY BUNDLE<br>

IN LIVERPOOL, IN SQUALOR CAST ADRIFT<br>

A DIRTY RAGGED MESS OF DESPERATION<br>

THOUGH DEVIL-TOUCHED I TOOK AS GOD'S OWN GIFT<br>

NO HISTORY NO OWNER, RHYME NOR REASON<br>

NOR EXPLANATION OF HIS SORRY STATE<br>

AND YET WITH ALL THE FIRE OF THE SURVIVOR<br>

I COULDN'T LEAVE IT<br>

COULDN'T LEAVE IT TO ITS FATE<br>

<br>

WHAT ARE WE TO DO WITH IT?<br>

DIRTY, RAGGED, COLOURED BREED<br>

WELCOME IT WITH OPEN ARMS?<br>

WELCOME ONE MORE MOUTH TO FEED?<br>

COULD YOUR OWN BLOOD NOT PROVIDE YOU<br>

WITH THE GRATITUDE YOU NEED?<br>

WE WILL CALL THE BOY HEATHCLIFF<br>

<br>

AND EVERY MAN ON EARTH CONCEALS A SECRET<br>

ON WHICH HE FEEDS AND YET TEARS HIM APART<br>

AND THIS BASTARD CHILD OF MY OWN MAKING<br>

WILL SORELY DESTROY THE STRONGEST HEART<br>

AND AS YOU FALL INTO THE TRAPS HE SETS YOU<br>

AND AS YOU'RE DRAWN TO CTSSSS HIS RECKLESS LINE<br>

AND AS I WATCH YOU PEER INTO HIS DARKNESS<br>

I PRAY THAT YOU'LL NEVER SEARCH<br>

I PRAY YOU'LL NEVER SEARCH FOR MINE<br>

<br>

WHAT ARE WE TO DO WITH IT?<br>

DIRTY, RAGGED, COLOURED BREED<br>

WELCOME IT WITH OPEN ARMS?<br>

WELCOME ONE MORE MOUTH TO FEED?<br>

COULD YOUR OWN BLOOD NOT PROVIDE YOU<br>

WITH THE GRATITUDE YOU NEED?<br>

WE'LL CALL HIM HEATHCLIFF<br>

<br>

WHY SHOULD WE ALL TOLERATE ILLEGITIMATE DEMANDS?<br>

OLDER, STRONGER -<br>

YEARS PASS BY:<br>

ALL SLIPS FURTHER FROM OUR HANDS<br>

<br>

WE SHOULD DEAL WITH HINI IN LANGUAGE<br>

THAT THE BASTARD UNDERSTANDS<br>

WE MOST FORCE THIS FOREIGN DEVIL<br>

FROM THIS HOUSE AT ANY PRICE<br>

THERE'S A CASE FOR ANY MEASURE<br>

ANY CRIME OR SACRIFICE<br>

<br>

WHAT ARE WE TO DO WITH IT?<br>

DIRTY, RAGGED, COLOURED BREED<br>

WELCOME IT WITH OPEN ARMS?<br>

WELCOME ONE MORE MOUTH TO FRED?<br>

COULD YOUR OWN BLOOD NOT PROVIDE YOU<br>

WITH THE GRATITUDE YOU NEED? <br>
