Lyrics

Don't hold off with pity
Besieged within your frightened city
Plans are laid but can they be changed
There's a man going round taking names again
The morning paper
Tells tales of fresh disaster
Who's care to say at the end of the day
That they'd live happy ever after
Memo to my enemies
Time is slipping by
Don't put no plans in the hands of a man
With a right to do
Defy
Poor cupid's smile's gone
Fired a heart but it couldn't be won
They had plans but didn't agree
So they take their chances on a climbing tree
Climbing tree, climbing tree
The gilded cage of possibility
Who could say it wouldn't be fun
You climb to the top, you take your money then run
Memo to my enemies
Time is slipping by
Don't put no plans in the hands of a man
With a right to do
Defy
Throw away the strangers
Those doggies in their mangers
The old men know which way they think it should go
And how they'd like to rearrange us
So strike out the fearless hunter
Her heart will never waver
He spread his cloak and wound up broke
To win a lady's favour
Memo to my enemies
Time is slipping by
Don't put no plans in the hands of a man
With a right to do
Defy
