Stereopathetic soulmanure version
I thought i heard a chainsaw
rather late last night
i woke this morning
and i knew i was right
I got the cut-in-half blues
the cut-in-half blues
well the last thing i saw was the big long saw
i got the cut-in-half blues
I knew we were in trouble
i knew she lost her head
when she started bringin' all those power tools to bed
I got the cut-in-half blues
the cut-in-half blues
well the last thing i saw was the big long saw
i got the cut-in-half blues
I'm laying in my grave
all i do is grunt
'cause the undertaker got all mixed up
and put my ass in the front
I got the cut-in-half blues
the cut-in-half blues
well the last thing i saw was the big long saw
i got the cut-in-half blues
[sneeze]

fresh meat and old slabs version
Some folks get their kicks stepping on ants
some folks fall for love and romance
some like to roll in the mud and laugh
my baby just likes to cut people in half
I got the cut in half blues
yeah the cut in half blues
well the last thing i saw was a big long saw
i got the cut in half blues
Well i thought i heard a chainsaw
revving late last night
i woke the next morning cut in two
and i knew that i was right
I got the cut in half blues
yeah the cut in half blues
well the last thing i saw was a big long saw
i got the cut in half blues
I knew we were in trouble
and we... she'd lost her head
when she started bringing
all those power tools to bed
i got the cut in half blues
yeah the cut in half blues
well the last thing i saw was a big long saw
i got the cut in half blues
