Lyrics

Cut Some Slack (Recorded live for "Buzz”)

[Verse 1]

In your [?]

There's a bag on your head

[?]

To the future treason

On your cable net

Get flashback cereal

Baby, that's what you get

[Pre-Chorus]

Better cut some slack

Better cut some, oh

[Verse 2]

It's a drop out screaming

In an orphan death

Full up empty stomachs screaming "that's what you get"

You got the lotion

Forget their tears

Spaghetti lotion in your second handsome blues

[Pre-Chorus]

Better cut some slack

Better cut some

[Chorus]

If your generation's ex is high

Your mind just can't stop falling down

'Cuz it's conversations that are

Coming back

I never realised

Uh-huh

[Verse 3]

It's your drop-out scream

On an orphan [?]

Full of empty stomachs, baby

'Cuz that's what you get

You got the lotion

Forget the chills

Spaghetti lotion in your second handsome blues

[Pre-Chorus]

Better cut some slack

Better cut some, oh

[Chorus]

If your generation's ex is high

Your mind just can't stop falling down

'Cuz it's conversations that are

Coming back

I never realised

[Outro]

Better cut some

Slack

Uh

Better cut some

Better cut some

Yeah

Ah

Everybody

Yeah, yeah

Drop your body

Yeah, yeah

Everybody

Rock your body right

Soulwax back, all right!
