	Story Behind the Song Written in Canada a month before the IRAQ war. It took 20 minutes to write it. I recorded it at home by myself. It's not a perfect recording but it captured a perfectly honest moment. Lyrics A Mouses Crumb To take away a mouses crumb You use your finger and your thumb You close your eyes and then play dumb Removed from guilt, you take the crumb. Leave no specks or evidence A trace of hope kept in suspense Keep them shaking on the fence Take the crumb, their last defense Move the mighty ships of war Missiles pointed at their door Strip their wealth and keep them poor Bring me your rich, for I need more. While bombs burst in the mid-air Mustn't care what soul lay there The poisoned trap is set to snare These are the casualties we spare To take away a mouses crumb You use your finger and your thumb You close your eyes and then play dumb Removed from guilt, you take the crumb. © copyright 2003 David Gillis Words & music by David Gillis
