Everything used to say
Never poke your beak into the frame
It’ll replace your dreams, with cowboy hats and plastic sheets
Her eyes said “I see a change in you”
I said “I spend more time with the mirror than you do”
Make sure she’s clean
I’ll dust her down and stare right through
It’s tried and tested, if I don’t call my man I’ll be passing out again
If I can’t pace myself between all these lines and questions
Wild, wild thing
Whenever we’re at home you’re the one who wears the trousers
As soon as you go out, I’ll be nailing down all my possessions
I was raised by snakes, they were raised by wolves, they were raised by drunks, they raised the bar
Quiet nights in.. taking
Questioning why your time runs thin
It’s tried and tested, everyone you know is just masking signs again
This host of hypocrites are who’s issues need addressing
Wild, wild man
Whenever you go out, can you even find your trousers?
They’ll be rooting round as soon as you pass out, on the couch

First thing when I blasted out of the womb
I cut a chord and screamed, I still remember my dreams
Floating endlessly, cooking in a cauldron in the belly of the first beast
I saw, dance floors; filled with witches so I started flicking matches at them
First thing when I blasted out of the womb
I saw tasteless sights, you wouldn’t taste my eyes
You push me out of everywhere I’ve been
You make me wait, to find there’s nothing leading
From crotch to grave, but drinks and incidents.
My head is constantly over my heels, so when you ask me if I’m falling my response is simply “always”
So you bet your hair
And I’ll bet my teeth
Jammed into a circle that starts again, and keeps spinning
[Pushing one and one together, to make one
This’ll hurt you more than it hurts me]
Drawing confessions, when I’m dancing this beautiful dance, with a chainsaw
So just keep your mind peeled and start spilling
First thing when I blasted out of the womb
I was led astray, a steel handed stingray – in the finest clothes
Stealing little children that were tempted out of windows
I saw, chainsaws; in this beautiful dance where your confession was drawn
First thing when I blasted out of the womb
I saw tasteless sights, you wouldn’t taste my eyes
So you bet your eyes
And I’ll bet my skin
Jammed into a circle that starts again, and keeps spinning
[Pushing one and one together, to make one
This’ll hurt you more than it hurts me]
So I hit the ground running, since I’m out of your water and into the air
I’ve got a thirst to know, is a Martini ever really dry?
I’ve got a thirst to know
You’ll be the first to know
If my glass is ever empty
If I crawl back in then I’ll never know

Pick up the keys to your car, flip five fingers
Hook the exhaust up in here, and lets lose you in this guest-bong
Laughable? Please put this to sleep ‘cause you’re so ugly when you’re talking
Even if you kiss me in a dream you better wake up and apologise
Gonna demonstrate my value to you
By smashing all your valuables, so there’s nothing to compare me to
Well I’m glad we never spoke, ‘cause I’m bashing up your spokes
Blesser of two evils
You’re always just unconscious or listening to your conscience
Promise you won’t apologise
[Story of my life because we always pull the trigger]
How much stuff do I have to break to get with you?
You know I’ll break you too, if you want me to
Shutter the blinds, shutter the blinds don’t let them see who left just smithereens this time
We’re the superficial’s nightmare
[My tongue, your mouth – now things are moving south
Your dress, is loud – my t-shirts inside out]
‘Cause when we fire in, clothes covered in tears
Acid in our eyes and beer in our hair
One thing I can tell you at least is, we’ll still get together, cause a scene and slam pieces
I like a girl who can hold her own ..hold her own damned tongue
You can lead me to water, but I’ll only wash my hands of you
We’re better than the devil you know
Cause we’re not just stunning, we’re well lubricated and cunning
I hope I make it to hell at least an hour before god knows I’m home....
