lyrics

Rocko was therapy.
Post-war P.T.S.D.
Sat on St Michael's steps.
The church's warmth a safe place to lay their heads.

This cold winter right before you,
But you've got a friend who,
Is loyal through and through.
And to the end,
No-one ever knew you.
The world just looked right through you,
But you shone so bright.
On a 2 Dog Night.

A Russell named Jack.
Named after grandad.
But everybody fought in WW2.
Bought for protection.
Turned into someone she could sing her heart out to.

This cold winter right before you,
But you've got a friend who,
Is loyal through and through.
And to the end,
No-one ever knew you.
The world just looked right through you,
But you shone so bright.
On a 2 Dog Night.

Poor soul look at that junkie.
Shouldn't he be spending his money,
On something a little more responsible?
Like a pair of shoes or some fruit and veg.
Found frozen by the river,
In a yankees cap.
A double XL jacket that,
Someone else had outgrown.
Is this, how we look after our own?

Because you don't,
No you don't.
No you don't know nothing.
Do ya? No. No you don't.
You don't know nothing,
Why thousands of people have to live like this?

No you don't,
No you don't.
No you don't know nothing.
Do ya? No. No you don't.
You don't know nothing,
Why thousands of people have to live like this?

This cold winter right before you,
But you've got a friend who,
Is loyal through and through.
And to the end,
No-one ever knew you.
The world just looked right through you,
But you shone so bright.
On a 2 Dog Night.
