Knives
Dumbing down the colours on life's noticeboard
Soaking up the drivel of the headless hoards
Pulling up the flowers from the neighbour's lawn
Soiling all their trousers since the day they were born yeah
Fell into the kitchen
And your knife was drawn there
Your blade looked long
My life went wrong then
Somewhere in the distance
Is the life I longed for
Yes I was wronged
Let's say so long dear
Searching through the papers for a get-out clause
Pouring salt and spirits into open sores
I fell in the kitchen
And your knife was drawn there
Your blade looked long
My life went wrong then
Somewhere in the distance
Is the life I longed for
Yes I was wronged
Let's say so long dear
Come into the kitchen
'Cause my knife is drawn yeah
The blade is long
It can't go wrong dear
Somewhere in the distance
Is the life we longed for
Yeah we went wrong
Let's say so long
Soaking up the drivel of the headless hoards
Pulling up the flowers from the neighbour's lawn
Soiling all their trousers since the day they were born yeah
Fell into the kitchen
And your knife was drawn there
Your blade looked long
My life went wrong then
Somewhere in the distance
Is the life I longed for
Yes I was wronged
Let's say so long dear
Searching through the papers for a get-out clause
Pouring salt and spirits into open sores
I fell in the kitchen
And your knife was drawn there
Your blade looked long
My life went wrong then
Somewhere in the distance
Is the life I longed for
Yes I was wronged
Let's say so long dear
Come into the kitchen
'Cause my knife is drawn yeah
The blade is long
It can't go wrong dear
Somewhere in the distance
Is the life we longed for
Yeah we went wrong
Let's say so long
