Dry Weather

Is there anyone prepared to tell me why?

Tell me why I'm being sucked dry?

Oh yes, that is yours and this is mine

As long as the balance is out, that's fine

I don't define the terms of the oppression

Do you awake to that dull and grey depression?


You ride on me

Suck my energy

You take what you want when you want it

You reject any change that I make

You ask me for more when I've spent it

When I've given it all, you still take


Is there anyone prepared to tell me why?

Tell me why I'm being sucked dry?


Oh yes I know the lines you draw are for protection

The number given for a name is simply for detection

I know I'm only paper in a file

But couldn't you treat me as a human for a while?


You ride on me

Suck my energy

You take what you want when you want it

You reject any change that I make

You ask me for more when I've spent it

When I've given it all, you still take


Is there anyone prepared to tell me why?

Tell me why I'm being sucked dry?


You offer your protection, but insist when I decline

You offer independence, but demand I tow the line

You say you give me freedom, but you hang on to the key

Well don't you think, perhaps, the decision's up to me?


You ride on me

Suck my energy

You take what you want when you want it

You reject any change that I make


You ask me for more when I've spent it

When I've given it all, you still take


Is there anyone prepared to tell me why?

Tell me why I'm being sucked dry?


So tell me I'm dreaming if I want to live

And I'll tell you you're just scheming to make me give

More than I want to, more than I can

You don't want person, you just want woman

You hide behind logic, secure with your facts

You've a history of time to back up your claims

Protecting the future by filling up the cracks

The might expose the real nature of your games

You want woman cos she's children for your system

Well people wither in that living death

You hide behind your prejudice, afraid of my wisdom

Afraid I might question your unquestioned worth


You ride on me

Suck my energy

You take what you want when you want it

You reject any change that I make

You ask me for more when I've spent it

When I've given it all, you still take


Is there anyone prepared to tell me why?

Tell me why I'm being sucked dry?


Used as a tool? Treated like a fool?

Shat on? Spat on?

Totally confused?

Fucked up? Mucked up?

Totally abused?

Pulled about? Fooled about?

Treated like a toy?

Joked about? Poked about?

Something to destroy?

Tricked? Kicked?

I don't want these games.
