The Teeth - Big Terrible

And all that I see are The either or's and I'm still yours And I'm slipping out the way I choose Like soft, slight Sunday blues And all that I taste now Faint Manila, so familiar Flying gulls raging in the wind Race the ships, wings guided by the waves Pressure at bay, tension's here to stay The Gulf Coast way And all that I take now is my time You're so graceful, holding but losing us It's great how you're so selfless with our shared life You're untouchable, stunning I'm drowning in this sea Your love all the time It's ours if you say so Just want something more to take a hold of When everything turns out differently I'll keep promising and listening to the loons All that I take now is my time You're so patient, holding but losing us It's great how I'm so selfish with our shared life And all that I taste now Faint Manila, so familiar I'm yours

Give in, give in, I want you back One heart, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep and we got tiger teeth If you come around, if you come around again You better not come in, you better stay outside 'Cause I can't hold my ground, I can't hold my ground, I can't Not if you look me in, you look me in the eyes A tiger in my heart again When you swallow someone whole, you are bound to choke Well, I guess we can never be friends I ate you up the day we first spoke Give in, give in, I want you back One heart, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep and we got tiger teeth Give in, give in, I want you back Keep count, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep (and we got tiger teeth) Don't you call me on the telephone Don't make plans with my friends I think that it's best if you leave me alone When I'm with you I just want to play pretend Well, a tiger in our hearts again When you swallow someone whole, you are bound to choke Well, I guess we can never be friends I ate you up the day we first spoke Give in, give in, I want you back One heart, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep and we got tiger teeth Give in, give in, I want you back Keep count, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep and we got tiger teeth If you'd only take one step closer I could reach the zipper on your dress We're leaning out over the water And we're holding our breath Well, a tiger in our hearts again When you swallow someone whole, you are bound to choke Well, I guess we can never be friends I ate you up the day we first spoke Give in, give in, I want you back One heart, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep and we got tiger teeth Give in, give in, I want you back Keep count, one too many to stomach Love bites so deep and we got tiger teeth Love bites so deep (and we got tiger teeth)

Head in a web, just left spinnin' around Back in your bed, hangin' upside down Your dirty sheets, your kerosene kiss I strike a match to get out of it You drag me back for the fun of it For the fun of it Oh, I tried so hard But you make me bored Sink your teeth in deeper Sink your teeth in deeper I guess it's easier said, baby, I'm onto you You trap me under the glass to keep me lovin' you Oh, aren't you just full of it? Yeah, you wear me thin Sink your teeth in deeper Sink your teeth in deeper Sink your teeth in deeper Dead in the web, baby, it's no fun Your dirty sheets, your strung-out love Your kerosene kiss, there's nothin' new You trap me under the glass to keep me lovin' you Baby, I'm onto you Sink your teeth in deeper Sink your teeth in deeper Sink your teeth in deeper

It's a terrible love, and I'm walking with spiders It's a terrible love that I'm walking in It's a terrible love, and I'm walking with spiders It's a terrible love that I'm walking in It's quiet company It's quiet company It's a terrible love, and I'm walking with spiders It's a terrible love and I'm walking in It's a terrible love, and I'm walking with spiders It's a terrible love and I'm walking in It's quiet company It's quiet company It's quiet company And I can't fall asleep Without a little help It takes a while to settle down My shivered bones Wait till the panic's out It takes an ocean not to break It takes an ocean not to break It takes an ocean not to break It takes an ocean not to break Company It's quiet company It's quiet company And I won't follow you Into the rabbit hole I said I would But then I saw Your shivered bones They didn't want me to It's a terrible love, and I'm walking with spiders It's a terrible love that I'm walking in It's a terrible love, and I'm walking with spiders It's a terrible love that I'm walking in It takes an ocean not to break It takes an ocean not to break It takes an ocean not to break

You hold me like you're gonna drop me Knowing you'll never do it softly Slipping through your fingers with the grease Then you told me I taste like a lolly So sweet, but only when you want me Changing like a channel on TV I saw the newspaper on the Front lawn of the neighbours and thought "They haven't brought it inside yet" Now I'm remembering the things I can't forget I've been figuring out How to figure things out But you'd rather your eyes shut tightly So you don't have to see what I see You've been living with doubt Leaves a bad taste in your mouth Now I've been holding on too long If you're gonna drop me do it softly It's such a terrible time to Be the one, the bubblegum, the glue that's stuck to you Why can't I scrub me off of you? I've been figuring out How to figure things out But you'd rather your eyes shut tightly So you don't have to see what I see You've been living with doubt Leaves a bad taste in your mouth Now I've been holding on too long If you're gonna drop me do it softly It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible but I'm not you It's terrible but it'll do I'm terrible and so are you

Once there was a healthy man He spent his lifetime workshopping robots No intentions ill or foul (I know you've heard the tune before) No intentions ill or foul In my line of darkness, your poison's kind of useless Old Mr. Corpse is rotting in the room with us I've been tortured, crawled out of purgatory Tell me honestly, is there something wrong with me? Up the ante, I'm tired of this new status quo All the agony stores enough power to know I have done some terrible things in my life I have done unbearable things But I don't want to die (I don't wanna die, don't wanna) Please don't let me die It's coming from below, they want me But I know a thing or two when it comes to being killed It might seem a bit painful But at least you get to come back again, and again, and again May I have your condolences? I know you've heard the tune before (Know you've heard the tune before) You think it's all outrageous Nevertheless, it's like I never left Now what's all the ruckus? Noises so abundant You'd think that I'd get used to this Let my insides evanesce Human contact remains very seldom All the children will channel all their powers to S-A-V-E T-H-E-M Thirty years with torture you can't comprehend Forty years, they're seeking a means to an end Fifty years attached onto puppeteer strings WHO WOULD DO SUCH TERRIBLE THINGS? I just want to die, yeah So please just let me die I'm undefeatable, I'm thriving 'Cause I know a thing or two when it comes to being killed It's oh so VERY painful And I don't want it to happen again, and again, and again It's coming for us all, I'm hiding I'm 'bout to take a blow, and I'm smiling It's oh so very painful And I don't want it to happen again, and again, and again Oh, lada-doo-a Oh, lada-dee-a Oh, lada-doo-a-ha (Oh, whoa-oh) I know you've heard the tune before (I know you've heard the tune before) Once there was a healthy man He spent his lifetime workshopping robots No intentions ill or foul And nothing in the lines of killing kids and trapping ghouls (Why'd you think that?) But then a fated moment, he caught one of his own Couldn't face the world He made a promise, and he'd harness all the anger Enough to bring his loved ones back He's gone haywire Now it's coming from below, THE HELLFIRE I'm about to make a friend but he doesn't seem that friendly! Well that goes without saying, there's no use in praying Again, and again, and again! The research in my head, it's dying! Couldn't leave it all behind and now no-one's gonna find it, find it To me it's all fine art If I could take it back, well I'd not! I guess it's all up to fate for man to reanimate
