Lyrics for Up the Neck - Live in Santa Monica, Sept. 1981

Anger and loss My senses run in the red Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Have I been hit by a truck? Oh, like a tire in the wood I woke up with a headache that split my skull Alone in the room I got down on the floor with my head pushed between my hands Under the bed with my teeth sunk into my arm Flesh, I said Baby, oh, sweetheart Listened to anger But kissed to his lip Something was ticking On his shag rug with the big tiles Well, remember the bacon Everything that was cute But my face in the sweat That burned on his chest as I ran Run of the mill His scent started to change somehow His face went berserk and my veins bulged from it Oh, I said Baby, oh, sweetheart Bondage sex Aggressive facility Blackened emotions confused The demented of zeal I was sure his intentions were sweet In the wrong places where Wishes are shot in the dark When your coin's down the well I got out in the hall with my teeth in my head Up to my neck and I said, said, said Dead, I said Baby, oh, sweetheart
