The Other Foot

Dean Wilson

When you were fat
and I was fit
I had you jumping through hoops
and chomping at the bit

but now the boot
is on the other foot
I deserve a good kicking
till I’m bruised and cut

not that I’m kinky
or owt like that
it’s just I’ve been a dick
and now it’s time you paid me back.
