lyrics

If I’m a coffin then you’re the last nail in my lid
You’re like an x-ray scanner from which nothing is hid
You’re like a heat seeking missile that always hits its mark
If I was a corpse in the water then you’d be the shark
If I’m a dog to you baby you’re the chain round my neck
You’re the last straw for the camel’s back and it’s gonna break
If I’m a needle you’re the haystack from which I’ll never be found
If I was to scream you’d be the gag to muffle the sound
If I was a knot in a rope then you’d do me uptight
If I was a candle you’d be the water to extinguish my light
If I’m a dog to you baby you’re the chain round my neck
You’re the last straw for the camel’s back and it’s gonna break
I’m the tarmac you’re the roller
I’m the tooth and you’re the drill
If I’m a wound then I’ll be septic
You’re the germ that’s making me ill
I can’t take my medicine
You’re the poison in my pill
If I’m a ship you’re the storm to sink me in my port
You’re the horses and the hounds while I’m the fox getting caught
You’re the lock on the door when I want to get in
You’re the voodoo master and I’m your doll full of pins
If I’m a dog to you baby you’re the chain round my neck
You’re the last straw for the camel’s back and it’s gonna break
I’m the tarmac you’re the roller
I’m the tooth and you’re the drill
If I’m a wound then I’ll be septic
You’re the germ that’s making me ill
You’re the poison in my medicine
And the benefactor of my will
