Lyrics

Cut off my nose cos it smells and I'll tell you a secret lie
Blind my poor eyes and I'll sing you a sweet lullaby
Dream me once in an age and I'll show you my smile
Rip out my tongue and I'll write to you once in a while
Shave off my hair and I'll give you a beer and a pound of rice
Shit on my feet and I'll pick every one of your lice
Think of me when you're alone and I'll run for a mile
Be obscene on the phone and I'll kiss you with effortless style
Knock on my door and I'll hide in the cupboard with blankets and towels
Smile at me sideways, I'll scavenge around for my bowels
Speak my name and I'll crush my poor skull with a file
Send me your sympathy and I'll just have to stand trial
I am so fragile I'll break if you look hard at me
I am so lost, so trapped and you seem so fucking free
Just leave me alone and I'll cave in and sit in a pile
Ignore me, abhor me and bore me to death with your smile
