They use what they have to only brutalise
they will never get it never become wise
life is full of roundabouts, you give what you receive
it's a funny old world i'm not here to deceive.

Willing and able i do what i can
turn peoples heads upside down
if only for a short while you may see the light
shining all around you ever so bright.
I'm not a regular reader of your work (seeing as I don't have much free time these days and what time I do have is spent writing my own stuff.), but I stop in from time to time and read a few lyrics. This one interests me and reminds me of my own work. I was just curious: why is it titled "can opener"?
