Twist the Knife

When I stand up I fall apart

My head keeps on spinning

You know I don't want to be who you want me to be

So keep on dreaming

Heads you win and tails you ought to be my fool

We're subjected to this irony called truth

Trying not to be amused

I used to be a little disgusted

Dancing with the devil, lying to myself

I said baby, "Twist the knife"

And when the circus has closed

"Where are the apes? They have gone wild"

'Cause there's more whiskey, there's more wine

Ain't got no worries on my mind

Heads you win and tails you ought to be my fool

Some strange comfort just to soothe my ... SOUL

Trying not to be amused

I used to be a little disgusted

Dancing with the devil, lying to myself

I said baby...

Ooh...

Twist the knife

Soothe my soul
