Lyrics for The First Cut

The first cut Is a criminal thing The first cut Goes deeper in Each impression Makes a chain reaction Each impression Will never be, never be, never be, never be broken Ooh, I'm a white girl You can see my skin Look at this picture That I'm living in, ooh And old scores never settle down I'll keep on walking 'Til I'm buried in the cold ground, cold ground, cold, cold ground Ooh, yeah Each impression Makes a chain reaction Each impression Will never be, never be, never be, never be broken The first cut (hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut Hello, George I never saw you coming in The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut (Hey, hey, hey) The first cut
