Cut Lip

(album: Whatever You Say, Say Nothing - 1993)

15 books in
Different covers
Winter comes in
Many colours

Kids toys broken glasses Elvis live in Vegas
He's still turning
All the worthless things
We're paying in

Pounds of sugar
Here it comes
Blankets from the
Social fund
Snooker balls and Spanish divers rocks full
Of cat hair
All the worthless things
For the warrants sake

Maybe you'll be so kind and take the shirt right from my back
That's got my kid I'd even smile for you
With my cut lip
With my cut lip
With my cut lip
With my cut lip

Talking away
My rent is due
Didn't get my
Last few

Playing on the satellite dish
Finally nights to switch to
Blue filmsloon tunes
Purple moons
Every motherfucker
Will be on it soon

Maybe you'll be so kind and take the shirt right from my back
That's got my kid I'd even smile for you
With my cut lip
With my cut lip
With my cut lip
With my cut lip
