[Verse 1]
How does it feel now you've been undressed
By a man with a mind like the gutter press
So disappointed to find it's no big sin
Lying skin to skin

[Chorus]
Shot with his own gun
Now dad is keeping mum
Shot with his own gun

[Post-Chorus 1]
Now somebody has to pay for the one who got away

[Verse 2]
What's on his mind now is anyone's guess
Losing his touch with each caress
Spending every evening looking so appealing
He comes without warning
Leaves without feeling

[Chorus]
Shot with his own gun
Now dad is keeping mum
Shot with his own gun
[Post-Chorus 2]
On your marks, man, ready, set
Let's get loaded and forget

[Verse 3]
The little corporal got in the way
And he got hit by an emotional ricochet
It's a bit more now than dressing up dolly
Playing house seems so melancholy

[Chorus]
Shot with his own gun
Now dad is keeping mum
Shot with his own gun

[Post-Chorus 3]
Oh it's too sad to be true
Your blue murder's killing you

[Outro]
Shot with his own gun
Now dad is keeping mum
Shot with his own gun
Now dad is keeping mum
