Every Word Is A Knife In My Ear - The Bravery

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear

Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

Like a snake in a suit spitting into the air

With a tongue like a needle and we’re shot full of fear

White picket teeth and a big red alert

The life of the party and we pulled up our skirt

It’s like poison

It’s like poison

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear

Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

A fool is a devil and a devil’s a fool

With a fork-tongue needle and you got us all fooled

A monkey doing tricks and we couldn’t resist

If this isn’t evil then I don’t know what is

It’s like poison

It’s like poison

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear

Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
