The Table lyrics

This table has four sturdy legs
And a heart of very near wild oak
When others would have screamed out loud my friend
This one never even spoke
I ve been sat upon, I ve been spat upon
I ve been treated like a bed
Been carried like a stretcher,
when someone thinks they re dead
I ve been dined upon, I ve been wined upon
I ve been taken for a fool
Taken for a desk,
when they should have been at school
This table s been pushed against the door
When tempers, well tempers, flare at night
Banged upon with knuckles clenched my friend
When someone thinks that they are right
I ve been sat upon, I ve been spat upon
I ve been treated like a bed
Been carried like a stretcher,
when someone thinks they re dead
I ve been dined upon, I ve been wined upon
I ve been taken for a fool
Taken for a desk,
when they should have been at school
Tables only turn when tables learn
Put me on a bonfire, watch me burn
Treat me with some dignity, don t treat me like a slave
Or I ll turn into the coffin in your grave
I ve been sat upon, I ve been spat upon
I ve been treated like a bed
Been carried like a stretcher,
when someone thinks they re dead
I ve been dined upon, I ve been wined upon
I ve been taken for a fool
Taken for a desk,
when they should have been at school
Tables only turn when tables learn
Put me on a bonfire, watch me burn
Treat me with some dignity, don t treat me like a slave
Or I ll turn into the coffin in your grave
