Can I Shoulder Your Load? (feat. Liz Farrell & Grandpa's Cats)
Never seen you working harder
I know you're pressing onwards
But bureaucratic earrings, they take their toll
When I see your stuffed ears, I say can I carry that load?
Drunken clowns carry courage
Banker's bailiffs force your mortgage
But you, you're an outcast soldier's soul
When I see your scarred arms, I say can I take that load?
Can I take that load? I ask with all my heart
Can I take your load? It ain't much, but it's a start
Truth's a terror when it matters
Villains vanish in cheap chatter
But among the sick, you spread out all your gold
When I see your scrubbed face, I say can I carry that load?
Profit pays those in power
People's pain makes them cower
I know it's hard when your heart is full of holes
When I see your lost eyes, I say can I carry that load?
When I see that you've tried, I say can I carry that load?
I know you're pressing onwards
But bureaucratic earrings, they take their toll
When I see your stuffed ears, I say can I carry that load?
Drunken clowns carry courage
Banker's bailiffs force your mortgage
But you, you're an outcast soldier's soul
When I see your scarred arms, I say can I take that load?
Can I take that load? I ask with all my heart
Can I take your load? It ain't much, but it's a start
Truth's a terror when it matters
Villains vanish in cheap chatter
But among the sick, you spread out all your gold
When I see your scrubbed face, I say can I carry that load?
Profit pays those in power
People's pain makes them cower
I know it's hard when your heart is full of holes
When I see your lost eyes, I say can I carry that load?
When I see that you've tried, I say can I carry that load?
