Do you ever get the feeling there's something going on behind your back?

lyrics

SMALL GAME FOR BIG HUNTERS

Smoke-rings are floating in the clubhouse
Trophies all lined up on the walls
Big shiny eyes
Stare you down and criticize
A twelve-bore can be a powerful thing

You know it will chain your hands together
You know it will nail you to the floor
Day after day
The deepsea divers choke and sway
Dogma can be the wildest thing

It's behind you - as plain as plain can be
Standing there behind you - stroking a goatee
It's behind you - high up on its toes
Standing right behind you - a finger up its nose

Fuddwits are whispering the clubhouse
Grapevines are climbing up the walls
Titbits and lies
Scratch your back and vilify
A driveller can be a powerful thing

You know it will tear apart your love-life
You know it will bore you to the bone
Year after year
The forklift drivers frown and sneer
Failure can be a furious thing

It's behind you - a predator waylaid
Standing there behind you - sharpening a blade
It's behind you - don't look the other way
Standing right behind you - as big as Hemingway

It's behind you - jaw hanging open wide
Standing there behind you - better run and hide
It's behind you - tooled up and set to blast
Standing right behind you - that shadow from the past
