Songtext:
(difford/tilbrook)
Slaughtered gutted and heartbroken
With no spirit or no soul
My emotions have been stolen
Love has left me with this hole
Now my heart’s a deep dark cavern
Emptiness is all I feel
I’m the pig she tried to fatten
And now all I do is squeal
But things could be worse
Things could be very bad for me
O’ my dear I find myself
A stitch short of a tapestry
Patience on the verge of breaking
I’m kicking cans around the street
Like a bad cold I need shaking
Like a fool I want to cheat
But to me she was an angel
And I went and let her down
The attraction was so fatal
That she kicked me off her cloud
The light was on there in her window
I saw her shadow moving around
I tried to stand on tip toes
Hoping that she might look down
I wanted so bad to call her
But I had to walk away
Slaughtered, gutted and heartbroken
Another diamond down the drain
Slaughtered gutted and heartbroken
With no spirit or no soul
My emotions have been stolen
Love has left me with this hole
Now my heart’s a deep dark cavern
Emptiness is all I feel
I’m the pig she tried to fatten
And now all I do is squeal
But things could be worse
Things could be very bad for me
O’ my dear I find myself
A stitch short of a tapestry
Patience on the verge of breaking
I’m kicking cans around the street
Like a bad cold I need shaking
Like a fool I want to cheat
But to me she was an angel
And I went and let her down
The attraction was so fatal
That she kicked me off her cloud
The light was on there in her window
I saw her shadow moving around
I tried to stand on tip toes
Hoping that she might look down
I wanted so bad to call her
But I had to walk away
Slaughtered, gutted and heartbroken
Another diamond down the drain
