Em G
So shut your mouth,
C B7 Em G
Look at your tongue it's hanging out
C B7 Em G
As you whistle down the wind
C B7 Em G
From the north down to the south
What was done but never said
When all is still, the thrill is dead
If you're pissing in the wind,
Watch your feet, watch where you tread
Em G C B7
'Cause it's a minefield out there
Em G C B7
Yeah it's a minefield out there
Em ..............................................................
Have you ever heard such a thing in your life as three blind mice?
So shut your mouth,
Look at your tongue it's hanging out
Where's your song that's not been sung?
Oh what's up, cat got your tongue?
Oh I forget myself, how impolite
When I said so long to wrong from right
I'm wondering when you'll come along
'Cause my mind is on the run
And it's feline, feline, feline...
My mind is on the run
My mind is on the run
My mind is on the run
So sit around,
Find a job and settle down
They'll be tracking your tail,
From booking to bail
Just shut your mouth,
(My mind is on the run)
Look at your tongue still hanging out
(My mind is on the run)
As you whistle down the wind
(My mind is on the run)
From the north down to the south
(My mind is on the run)
Ah it's a minefield out there
(My mind is on the run)
Yeah it's a minefield out there
(My mind is on the run)
(So shut your mouth)
It's a minefield out there
(My mind is on the run)
(Look at your tongue it's hanging out)
It's a minefield out there
(My mind is on the run)
My mind is on the run
My mind is on the run
My mind is on the run
My mind is on the run
