Story behind the song
I wrote this song about Politicians, that dedicated group of 'beat around the Bushes' who never answer the relevant question, they just 'skirt around' the important points, in order not to damage their own agenda. Don't answer questions that 'aren't asked', just 'Cut to the Quick'
Lyrics
Sneaking through the back door of my conscience I wonder if you realise what you do? You make the same mistake but ten times over Now it seems you're stuck to me like glue I think the time has come to choose Just tell me what I've got to lose Double standards make me feel so sick Before this is over..... Cut to the Quick You say just wait until tomorrow Till then I'll beg, steal and I'll borrow When history repeats itself Look back I'm gone I'm not your nurse maid or your friend I think the time has come to choose Just tell me what I've got to lose Double standards make me feel so sick Before this is over..... Cut to the Quick Sneaking through the back door of my conscience I wonder if you realise what you do? You make the same mistake but ten times over Now it seems you're stuck to me like glue I think the time has come to choose Just tell me what I've got to lose Double standards make me feel so sick Before this is over..... Cut to the Quick
