XTC - Scissor Man lyrics

Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Putting end to evildoers' games
Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Maybe you are in his book of names
Maybe you are in his book of names

So be kind and helpful to your mother
Just think twice before you try to steal
When he cuts with sticky silver snippers
You may find that wounds will never heal

All self made bad boys
If you refuse to believe he exist
You won't be frightened
When you find out you're on his list
You're on his list, you're on his list

Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Putting end to evildoers' games
Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Maybe you are in his book of names
Maybe you are in his book of names

So be good and never poison people
Just think twice before the deed is done
When you wake up guilty in the morning
You may find important pieces gone

All self made bad boys
If you refuse to believe he exist
You won't be frightened
When you find out you're on his list
You're on his list, you're on his list

Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Putting end to evildoers' games
Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Maybe you are in his book of names
Maybe you are in his book of names

All self made bad boys
If you refuse to believe he exist
You won't be frightened
When you find out you're on his list
You're on his list, you're on his list

Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Putting end to evildoers' games
Snipping, snipping
Snipping goes the scissor man
Maybe you are in his book of names
Maybe you are in his book of names
