Help Me Put Some Meat On These
Bones
Help me put some meat on these bones
I haven't wasted all this time alone
But I can think of several things that you could do
That would definitely sweeten up this stew
Won't you help me put some meat on these bones
I'd gladly give you anything I own
But my not-for-profit soul
Is waist-deep in a hole
Won't you help me put some meat on these bones
You can see by me the world is moving faster
A minor humanitarian disaster
These bones they might be brittle and unsightly
But I'm damned if I'm not polishing them nightly
Help me put some meat on these bones
I'll sleep and eat and drink and dream alone
I won't ask to be your charity of choice
Only that you hear the hunger in my voice
Won't you help me put some meat on these bones

I've got no excuses for this presentation
I'm stripping down the means of communication
These bones they might be broken into splinters
But they've already survived a million winters
Help me put some meat on these bones
I haven't wasted all this time alone
But I can think of several things that you could do
That would definitely sweeten up this stew
Won't you help me put some meat on these bones
Help me put some meat on these bones |
