Woodcutter's Son Lyrics - Paul Weller

Sugartown has turned so sour 

Its people angry in their sleep 

There's more small-town paranoia 

Sweeping down its evil sheets 

You better give me the chance 

I'll cut you down with a glance 

Yeh, with my small axe - so help me 

And tho' I'm only one 

And tho' weak I'm strong 

And if it comes to the crunch 

Then I'm the woodcutter's son

And I'm cutting down the wood for the good of everyone! 

You can tell it's witching hour 

You can feel the spirits rise 

When the room goes very quiet 

And there's hatred in your eyes 

You better give me the chance 

I'll cut you down with a glance 

Yeh, with my small axe - so help me 

And tho' I'm only one 

And tho' weak I'm strong 

And if it comes to the crunch 

Then I'm the woodcutter's son 

And I'm cutting down the wood for the good of everyone! 

There's a silence when I enter 

And a murmur when I leave 

I can see their jealous faces 

I can feel the ice they breathe

You better give me the chance 

I'll cut you down with a glance 

Yeh, with my small axe - so help me 

And tho' I'm only one 

And tho' weak I'm strong 

And if it comes to the crunch 

Then I'm the woodcutter's son
