The Hunter
3rd Favourite Chord
Words and Music Copyright Simon Hudson 2005
Take your best shot
'cos you know that I'm coming
know that I'm coming
coming for you
Better turn and run
'cos you know that I'm coming
better start running
I'm coming for you
I saw you enter my
hunting zone, hurting zone
Foolish child to come
here alone, here alone.
Gonna have my fun
there's no use in you running
gonna give you my lovin’
If you put a fight
better know that I love it
I'm hardening to it
I want you to try
Now your heart is thumping
your blood is pumping
the end is coming
I'm closing in
Your lungs are burning
Your feet are churning
The tide is turning
You might get away
To live another day.
Alright Jack

Another day to ease my soul
Another day in rock ‘n’ roll
Another day to turn away
Ignoring what the papers say
There’s talk of war, they talk of flood
No one talks of the common good
Tax is up, house prices down
There’s not a lot of love around
Gonna’ win the lottery
That’s ironic poetry
Live my life in ecstasy
That’ll do for me
Going to buy me a fancy car.
Drive it fast, travel far
Oil is scarce, so they say
keep my foot down anyway
I'm all right Jack, how about you?
Your foot is wearing the other shoe.
I'm doing well, I'm feeling fine
This poet's written is his last line
Chorus
Getting hotter than we planned.
Going to keep my head in the sand
This ostrich farm’s where I'll be
Ostrich farmers, you and me
There's talk of war, talk of flood.
No one talks of the common good.
They split some atoms in Iran,
Annoying the Big Bird Americans
Chorus
Talk of hunger, talk of war
Don’t know what they’re just talking for
Scenes of anger, scenes of strife
There must be more to life.
