Freaky Teeth

Well they'll meet you falling down
On the darkness on the edge of town
They came to steal the lightning from the sky
You're the person they come to shove
And your love might not be enough
To free to you from the fears that paralyse

Yet they used to love you for the way you sang your soul
Now they've come to claim you through the night
The ghosts have come to steal the light outta your eyes

But your mother, and your wife
Cuts your heart out with a knife
They left you for the dogs to lick your bones
They made you cry the rain
But they love you just the same
Before your God, and the devil, took your soul

Tell me what did you bequeath
To the girl with the freaky teeth
She shown you things she stolen from the queen
Took out your hearts desire
As she danced back into the fire
With the holy man who stole your tambourine

Yet they used to love you for the way you sang your soul
Now they've come to claim you through the night
The ghosts have come to steal the light outta your eyes

But your mother, and your wife
Cuts your heart out with a knife
They left you for the dogs to lick your bones
They made you cry the rain
But they love you just the same
Before your God, and the devil, took your soul
