The Old Fox - Mekons

Old fox walking over ice

Listening for cracks

Below water a pit

Above fire, brilliance, beauty

No one is around

(Below water)

Young fox dips his tail

And goes tumbling in

Behind the crow and gate

Old fox eating from the bins

(Above fire)

No one is around

Behind the crow and gate

Conditions are difficult

Old fox is eating from the bins

And full of responsibility

The task is great

A task is great

Old fox walks over ice
