Lyrics

Windout

[Chorus 1]

Windout, if you're out of wind

Windout, if you're really spent

Windout, if you're young and red

[Chorus 2]

Yeah, tick tock, it's tine o'clock

Once is good enough, you really go

[Verse 1]

So find out - if you're really spent

Find out - if you're out of wind

Windout - if you're out of sin

[Chorus 2]

[Verse 2]

There's no doubt - that you're feeling fine

No doubt - that you're out of mind

No doubt - that you're young and red

Windout - if you're really spent

Find out - if you're young and red

Windout - if you're out of wind

If you're young and red

Tick tock time to clock my band

Once is good enough, you really go

[Outro]

Windout, find out, no doubt[x2]

Windout, windout, windout
