You dropped out of college when you were 21;
like all the other girls, eager to have your fun.
Snorting coke and dropping any pills you please
and then you lost your mind when you took some of these.
You’re cutting up.
That’s right – you’re messing up.
Think of all the opportunities you ever had
yet you’re an insult to your mum and dad.

You were born a happy and healthy little boy.
You were your parent’s pride and joy
but then your school sent your mind in a whirl
and you decided that you’re really a girl.
You’re cutting up.
That’s right – you’re messing up.
Think of all the opportunities you ever had
yet you’re an insult to your mum and dad.

You are the pastor of a local kirk,
though between you and I, you’re a bit of a berk.
You hold same sex marriages – a sin against God.
Frankly your behaviour is definitely odd!
You’re cutting up.
That’s right – you’re messing up.
In a decent society you have no place;
you’re an insult to the human race.

You like to look at every little girl you can
even though you’re a 40 year old man.
You work as a teacher in a public school,
supervising children at the swimming pool.
You’re cutting up.
That’s right – you’re messing up.
In a decent society you have no place;
you’re an insult to the human race.
