Mantrap - G.B.H.

They’re always stealing off the land

The Earl has to take his final stand

Build a device to catch them all

I don’t give a damn if they say they’re poor

If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap

The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap

He’s old and wicked and he hates the world

He’s wicked as sin and his mind is gnarled

He’s got plenty but he doesn’t share

And to ask for help they wouldn’t dare

If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap

The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap

A wall heath man with his wife to keep

Did his duty and stole a sheep

Refused to grovel, he refused to beg

Stepped on the trigger and lost his leg

If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap

The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap

Deported abroad and is long since dead

The gamekeeper’s found without his head

His body was torn like tissue paper

A hidden peg-leg found years later

If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap

The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap

The jaws of his baby tightly snap, it’s a man trap

If you get caught there’s no going back, man trap
