SMP - The Knife lyrics

Ten miles from somewhere sane The brim of my hat burnt on acid rain And this shanty town, it's sinking like a hole If this be earth on hell, damn the man below If he's Abel, I might be Cain If he's forgiven, I might be blamed With the steel in my hand, I might make him obey Over shots on the bar, over fists he might pay I'm under the knife And under the light So take what you might Knife I'm under the knife And under the light Last wrong or last rite He reached for his and I for mine My only thought was "do unto thine" And these bullets sting like a nest of wasps And this pistol here's like my albatrosse The crime was done, the web was spun My neck, their noose, the West was won Up a cripple creek in print new-speak A man died for state, not love, not speech Knife I'm under the knife And under the light So take what you might Knife I'm under the knife And under the light Last wrong or last rite What can you do when the world's upside down And it's hell over sky and the earth's raining down And you can't even sleep, you've got PCB dreams With bullets for breakfast and minstrel TV And you're taking these shots just to get through the day Either pills under liquor or snub .38's You're the man with no name, I don't care what you does 'Cause it's dust unto dust unto dust unto dust unto dust Knife I'm under the knife And under the light So take what you might Knife I'm under the knife And under the light Last wrong or last rite
