Pearls B4 The Swine Lyrics - Prince

If I leave my front door open 

would u come and visit me? 

Just 2 slander my name hopin' 

that I would pack my bags and leave... 

If I did would u remember 

2 feed the dove and clean the cage? 

And never count in front of the children 

lest they die of old age 

I don't really know y we have 2 go r separate ways 

Whether or not we grow after the seeds r shown 

Only time can say...

Can I offer u baklava? 

or a bagel with cream cheese? 

Will we say grace 2 r father 

holding hands down on r knees? 

R we better off just fighting? 

U on ur side, me on mine 

R the words that I keep writing... 

only pearls b4 the swine? 

What makes men claim that u're a friend 

when u're not at all? 

They knock u down and then, 

they lift u up again, just 2 c u fall... 

But like a bird I'll keep on singing... 

a song that never leaves ur mind 

If nothing else u've taught me one thing... 

"Never cast ur pearls b4 the swine"
