Squeeze - Slaughtered, Gutted And Heartbroken lyrics

(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
