Sad Is the Hunter Lyrics
Sad Is The Hunter - The Groundhogs
Thinking about the prospects of the future
Thinking about conditions in the past
Thinking about the people in my own time
How long their future's gonna last
Read about the Spanish inquisition
Read about the witch hunt's of those days
Things have only changed in outward appearance
Cruelty is integral in man's ways
For we all applaud the surgeon
Saving lives and mending limbs
Does he use his latent sadism
For his work is pretty grim
Hunting is the vehicle for some men
To satisfy their baser needs
Sport is the label for this depravity
A distortion of the need to feed
Innocents should never have to suffer
With their lives for the pleasure of the few
An alternative is always available
Look at it from a different view
This decade has seen a new way
To curb this unfortunate trait
Let music be the hunter
And keep your conscience straight
