From Fear (1974)[Verse 1]

Standing, waiting for a man to show

Wide-eyed, one eye fixed on the door

This waiting's killing me

It's wearing me down

Day in, day out

My feet are burning holes in the ground

[Verse 2]

Darkness, warmer than a bedroom floor

Want someone to hold me close forever more

I'm a sleeping dog

But you can't tell

When I'm on the prowl

You better run like hell

[Pre-Chorus]

You know it makes sense, don't even think about it

Life and death are things you just do when you're bored

[Chorus]

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

You add it up, it brings you down

You add it up, it brings you down

[Verse 3]

Home is living like a man on the run

Trails leading nowhere, where to, my son?

We're already dead

But not yet in the ground

Come on, shake my helping hand

I'll show you around

[Pre-Chorus]

You know it makes sense, don't even think about it

Life and death are things you just do when you're bored

[Chorus]

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

You add it up, it brings you down

You add it up, it brings you down

[Outro]

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend

Say fear is a man's best friend
