Lips And Knives

from The Fred Astaire Of Words by Poirot

/

lyrics

about the strangest creature ever born and come into my life i'm gonna tell you
she's not like anything you know
a he-girl who's got eyes like fire becomes a bad desire for me and well you
you'll wish that it was time to go

whenever she begins to play
this nasty game in her nasty way
you come to realize how sweat arrives
(you don't know what to say)
and when you dare ask 'what's it called?'
she wears a smile so mean and bold
and easily she answers Lips And Knives

the smell of blood is constantly on her skin and hair and jeans, the maddest hobby
and oh dear god you watch it grow
she kind of always kids around, she don't mind if your name is jack or bobby
no matter what, it's gonna show
