"Cry Your Eyes Out" lyrics

Ten hours on a building site
Ten pints will put you right
Work your fingers to the bone
Still, the food is on the table when you get home
You've got all you could want from life
But no thought for what you call your nagging wife
You see your actions, I can't condone
I saw the tears in your eyes when she was gone

Cry your eyes out, mug
'Cause you reap what you sow
How you can choose to live like this?
Is what I'd like to know
Sitting there with your head in your hands and you wonder where it went wrong?
After all the shit that you put her through and you wonder why she's gone?

Better stay out 'cause your anger is prone
To start another situation when you get home
Your kids are no better, stepping out of line
You think it felt better when you were doing time
What you need is to have a long hard think
About what led you to this shit
You can't blame the kids, you can't blame the drink
It's your own fucking nature that's the missing link

Cry your eyes out, mug
'Cause you reap what you sow
How you can choose to live like this?
Is what I'd like to know
Sitting there with your head in your hands and you wonder where it went wrong?
After all the shit that you put her through and you wonder why she's gone?

Cry your eyes out, mug
'Cause you reap what you sow
How you can choose to live like this?
Is what I'd like to know
Sitting there with your head in your hands and you wonder where it went wrong?
After all the shit that you put her through and you wonder why she's gone?
