Tom Billington - Old Chickens Make Good Soup lyrics
rate meDo, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do... (Do...)
Stop trying so hard to stop
Beating yourself up.
The cream always comes to the top.
And we used to be thick as thieves,
Sound as a pound of beef,
As mad as a mouthful of beets.
But that's the trouble with people like me:
We take too much too hard. (take too much too hard.)
Come back to the start.
And I walked you home in the fog,
So close we almost snogged;
But you were too perfect a cog
For my irregularities --
A perfect parity.
You told me you didn't love me.
To you I would give everything, (To you I would give everything,)
But you want nothing back. (But you want nothing back.)
You take everything back. (You take everything back.)
Where's my friend?
She was my oldest friend.
But old chickens make good soup, (old chickens make good soup,)
And I'm not gonna lose
any more sleep over you.
I'm not even gonna try,
so what are you gonna do about it:
Just sit and watch me cry
into my soup? All but doubt it!
But love could just curl up and die
for all I care...
For all I care...
For all I care.
You will be lonely
without me. I know you
Better than you know yourself. (Better than you know yourself.)
You will be lonely (You will be lonely)
without me. I know you (without me. I know you)
Better than you know yourself. (Better than you know yourself.)
To you I would give everything, (To you I would give everything,)
But you want nothing back. (But you want nothing back.)
You take everything back... (You take everything back...)
You take everything back... (You take everything back...)
You take everything back. (You take everything back.)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do... (Do...)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do, do-do. Do, do-do do (Do, do-do. Do, do-do do)
Do... (Do...)
