Lyrics

Cut and Run

You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
Put your feet up
You're looking unwell
Put your feet up
You're looking unwell
Cut and run
You're looking unwell
You're your father's son

He didn't learn from the error of his way
Now he stays in a camp 'cause he was counting down his days
He didn't from the error of his way
Now he stays in a camp 'cause he was counting down his days
He didn't learn form the error of his way
Now he stays in a capm cos he was counting down his days
He didin't learn from the error of his way
Now he stays in a camp cos he was counting down his days

You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
Put your feet up
You're looking unwell
Put your feet up
You're looking unwell
Cut and run
You're looking unwell
You're your father's son

He didn't learn from the error of his way
Now he stays in a camp 'cause he was counting down his days
He didn't from the error of his way
Now he stays in a camp 'cause he was counting down his days
He didn't learn form the error of his way
Now he stays in a capm 'cause he was counting down his days
He didin't learn from the error of his way
Now he stays in a camp 'cause he was counting down his days

All talk no action
All work no play
No satisfaction
You'll have your day
All talk no trousers
All work no play
No satisfaction
You'll have your day

You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
Cut and run
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
You're your father's son
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
Cut and run
You're looking unwell
You're looking unwell
Cut and run
