lyrics

V1:
And you never heard a single word she mumbled
You're barely aware she told you so.
And you do not know that though she's scared and humbled
She has her pride
Buried very deep inside
V2:
And it makes no bones to you she hates and fears you
When you only need her to obey
With each passing day she sees destruction near you
She can hardly wait
To put this new dish on your plate
Ch1:
Oh, she can moan til the cows come home
Which maybe sounds appropriate to you
(the stupid moo)
Oh, she can moan til the cows come home
'Cos sometimes it's the little things you do
That trickle through.
V3:
It's passive resistance, she can hardly clout you
Just miniature acts of sabotage
Now your entourage of timid yes-men doubt you
Something isn't right
Now you BOTH can't sleep at night
[Ch1 again]
Ch2:
Oh, she can moan til the cows come home
The water drips and eats the stone away
Some more each day
Oh, she can moan til the cows come home
This is her only way to make you pay
By slow decay
[V1 again]
