With Cut Lips lyrics
He beats his partner black and blue
Like he thinks it’s his right to do
We hear the screams, we hear the cries and calls
We hear it every night through the thin walls

Why they stay with him we don’t know
Why don’t they leave, why don’t they go
Things won’t change, they just cannot
Coz we know a leopard can never change its spots, no

The next day off to work in a shirt and tie
They stand at the door and each waves goodbye
Despite all the heartache and all the pain
They never ask why, they never complain
They never complain

They try hard to please him so
How much they suffer we’ll never know
His demons inside of his soul
Will never subside, they just grow
They just grow, they just grow

No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
No one can know, that’s for sure
But you cannot kiss if you’ve got cut lips
That’s right, you cannot kiss with cut lips
And you can’t shake hands with a clenched fist
No, no, you can’t shake hands with a clenched fist

Leave him we so wish that you would
No one needs to tell you that he’s no good
Find someone else that will treat you right
No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
No one can know, that’s for sure

Leave him we so wish that you would
No one needs to tell you that he’s no good
Find someone else that will treat you right
That won’t like to argue, won’t like to fight

No one said nothing till it was too late
Till after his fists had sealed their fate
The police they said ‘Must have fell down the stairs’
Even though there were traces of violence everywhere

It’s a man’s world it’s sad to say
Committing violence every day
Will the demons inside ever go
Will it ever stop, only God knows
Only God knows, only God knows, only God knows

Leave him we so wish that you would
No one needs to tell you that he’s no good
Find someone else that will treat you right
No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
No one can know, that’s for sure

But you can’t kiss if you’ve got cut lips
You cannot kiss with cut lips
And you can’t shake hands with a clenched fist
No, no, you can’t shake hands with a clenched fist
