Takers and Leavers is an EP by Dr. Dog. It was released a year before their LP, We All Belong, which re-released Ain't It Strange and Die Die Die.

The first 1000 copies had custom covers, which featured various images and assortments of random art. The standard EP was produced later that month.[1]

[edit] Title of EP

The title Takers and Leavers from a poem recited at the end of Livin' A Dream, the ultimate track of the EP.

Well, I know there's always been greed and green acres, and war and peace makers. And then there's your takers and your leavers, your havers and your needers.

The poem (included with the lyrics) can be found here.[2]
