The man who was mortally wounded in war 
Kept on fighting 
The man who was cut to the quick by love 
Kept on loving 
The man who was merciless tortured by thoughts 
Kept on thinking 
The man who was crippled with concern 
Kept on caring 

Hair of the dog 
Hair of the dog 
Hair of the dog that turned 
Hair of the dog 

The man whose eyes were sore from obscenities 
Kept on looking 
The man whose heart bled, killed by compassion 
Kept on feeling 
The man whose legs buckled under exertion 
Kept on running 
The man whose ears burned to the sound of his own name 
Kept on listening 

Hair of the dog 
Hair of the dog 
Hair of the dog that turned 
Hair of the dog
