Song | Flesh and Blood |
Artist | The Waifs |
Album | Up All Night |
There are secrets in the soul of me | |
Things I keep inside | |
Places you will never see | |
Hidden under lock and key | |
Flesh and blood and skin and bone | |
You’re looking from the outside in | |
All you’ll see is what you’re shown | |
Flesh and blood and skin and bone | |
It’s par for the course it’s a matter of fact | |
People are all the same | |
They want to make my business theirs | |
Slandering my good name | |
All around my neighbourhood | |
People trying to say that | |
I ain’t no good | |
Pointing their finger at me and mine | |
Look at what’s hanging on my clothesline | |
Flesh and blood and skin and bone | |
What’s mine is mine and mine alone | |
Stand at the window on your tippy toes | |
Blinds are down – skin and bone | |
Ashes come to ashes | |
Dust becomes to dust | |
My secret soul will never die | |
As my body surely must | |
When I’m buried under the ground | |
I’ll still be here in kind | |
Invisible and sinister | |
The things | |
I leave behind | |
Flesh and bone and skin and blood | |
Bury my deep beneath the mud | |
When I die only thing that’s gone | |
Is flesh and blood, skin and bone |
There are secrets in the soul of me | |
Things I keep inside | |
Places you will never see | |
Hidden under lock and key | |
Flesh and blood and skin and bone | |
You' re looking from the outside in | |
All you' ll see is what you' re shown | |
Flesh and blood and skin and bone | |
It' s par for the course it' s a matter of fact | |
People are all the same | |
They want to make my business theirs | |
Slandering my good name | |
All around my neighbourhood | |
People trying to say that | |
I ain' t no good | |
Pointing their finger at me and mine | |
Look at what' s hanging on my clothesline | |
Flesh and blood and skin and bone | |
What' s mine is mine and mine alone | |
Stand at the window on your tippy toes | |
Blinds are down skin and bone | |
Ashes come to ashes | |
Dust becomes to dust | |
My secret soul will never die | |
As my body surely must | |
When I' m buried under the ground | |
I' ll still be here in kind | |
Invisible and sinister | |
The things | |
I leave behind | |
Flesh and bone and skin and blood | |
Bury my deep beneath the mud | |
When I die only thing that' s gone | |
Is flesh and blood, skin and bone |
