Forty or Fifty

Forty or fifty horses lying in a lot

Red raincoats and rifles, an epidemic has been stopped

Scientist speaks, what are you wondering about?

Got where he is by turning lab mice inside out

Things we do and we have to do

And the things I do for you and what you do for me too

The, "Yeah, but I" and any other excuse

And if you take it for given, then what's the use?

All his possessions around him in his house

Lying beside him, his companion and his spouse

And in the morning he dresses and goes to hell

All activated by a little timer bell

Things we do and we have to do

And the things I do for you and what you do for me too

The, "Yeah, but I" and any other excuse

And if you take it for given, then what's the use?
