Lyrics:  You can lead a horse to water
but you can't make him drink
You can teach a man oughta
but you can't make him think

Talk about the child
Learn about the fall
You and I

You can run but you can't hide
or wish it all away
The fox is in the henhouse now
and there's a price to pay

Talk about the man
Holding all the power
On the animal farm

There's a cold wind 'round the main house and
the cattle raise a cheer
and the hired hands sing praises while
a frost is growing near

Talk about the man
holding all the power
on the animal farm

You can read to the children
what they don't need to hear
all the while the man with the gun
is trembling with fear

Learn about the men
holding all the power
on the animal farm

There's a cold wind 'round the main house and
the cattle raise a cheer
and the hired hands sing praises while
a frost is growing near

Talk about the man
holding all the power
on the animal farm

You and I
You and I
You and I

Hey, I just listened to your stuff now, and I quite liked it. Some nice, mellow folk tunes you've got there... I liked that WWII song Coldlizt, and the story it told. And Pop Princess, which was very Antipop in a way... Good stuff! Gruesome Greg Harris, Host of Antipop Radio

There is a seductive sweetness to his songs. Catchy and bright but with an undercurrent of sadness. His song 'Colditz' is one of the most moving songs I've heard in a long time.
