Old Chickens Make Good Soup Lyrics - Singles - Tom Billington

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...) 

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...)
