This Bailiff's Bravado

from Acting Thick for Money (volume 2) by The Wind-up Birds

lyrics

This bailiff’s bravado
He clucks like a chicken
On spit dappled streets that can barely contain him
This bailiff’s bravado
He’s constantly flexing his gym tortured muscles
Though he pretends that he isn’t

And the letter from the service provider lies beside her
The language within seems deliberately ambiguous

This bailiff’s bravado
Soft taps at the door
Practiced politeness brings fear all the more
This bailiff’s bravado
The tricks of his trade
Feigned concern hiding threats that are made

And the letter from the service provider lies beside her
The language within seems deliberately ambiguous

This bailiff’s bravado
He thinks of his kids
Its an easy excuse for the things that he did
This bailiff’s bravado
The job that exists
‘Cause the people won’t live within their means like he did

And the letter from the service provider lies beside her
The language within seems deliberately ambiguous
