The Friends Of Billy Bear Lyrics - Deacon Blue

Is there a wolf in the house 

Or a scapegoat or a man who's never scared 

Is there anyone that can show me a photograph 

Is there a friend of Billy Bear 

Because he's as tough as railings and built like a hill 

His head's a gentle slope for the good to fall on 

And all across the weekend he'll make you aware 

That come Monday moring you're a friend of Billy Bear 

Is there a woman indoors or a child in disguise 

Or a dog that's not sized his boot soles 

Is there a board that's never felt his terrible tread 

Or a window never shook by Billy Bear 

Is there a mother of a son not worried when he comes 

Busrting through his clothes like a sunset 

Or some poor forgotten burn whose life not overturned 

By the freewheeling tow of Billy Bear
