Shot With His Own Gun |
| How does it feel now you’ve been undressed |
| By a man with a mind like the gutter press |
| So disappointed to find it’s no big sin |
| Lying skin to skin |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Now dad is keeping mum |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Now somebody has to pay for the one who got away |
| What’s on his mind now is anyone’s guess |
| Losing his touch with each caress |
| Spending every evening looking so appealing |
| He comes without warning |
| Leaves without feeling |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Now dad is keeping mum |
| Shot with his own gun |
| On your marks, man, ready, set |
| Let’s get loaded and forget |
| The little corporal got in the way |
| And he got hit by an emotional ricochet |
| It’s a bit more now than dressing up dolly |
| Playing house seems so melancholy |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Now dad is keeping mum |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Oh it’s too sad to be true |
| Your blue murder’s killing you |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Now dad is keeping mum |
| Shot with his own gun |
| Now dad is keeping mum |
