lyrics

You took me forgranted, you took me forgranted,
But you thought you knew it all x2

What happens when, you count up the eggs in the nest and then,
Too late the speckled hen,
The fox laughs,
The birds in the nest are all dead.

You took me forgranted, you took me forgranted,
But you thought you knew it all x2

What happens when, you count up your money, your fingers on,
Too late the hunter's gun,
The buck leaps,
The scent of death lingers on.

You took me forgranted, you took me forgranted,
But you thought you knew it all x2
