Lyrics
He was so mysterious
When he was still here
He'd act so very serious
But was he sincere?
He was charming and disarming
He'd say things we wouldn't dare
Draw a line he'd cross it
'Cause he simply didn't care
He was a cut-up
And now he's cut and run
Was he sarcastic?
It was so hard to tell
It was simply fantastic
How he faked it so well
He'd come off as smarmy
But it was all snark
He was rightfully famed for his inappropriate remarks
Oh yes his smart mouth was gonna earn him trouble and strife
He was cruising for a bruising he's our hero for life
He was a cut-up
And now he's cut and run
One day he vanished
Where did he go?
Someplace sunny and Spanish?
Nobody knows
Lo deseo pero no lo tengo
¿Es él vaquero en México?
He was practically obsequious
Perfectly innocuous
Innocent but deadly
He was thoroughly obnoxious
Everybody misses him
But this bird has flown
Bad influence bad apple he was bad to the bone
That's right his smart mouth was gonna earn him trouble and strife
He was cruising for a bruising he's our hero for life
He was a cut-up
And now he's cut and run
