Lyrics for Silk Skin Paws
You have nothing to fear I'm just making enquiries Dog bone hunting Gives you back to yourself Standing before me The gargoyle turns Jutting jaws and The stubble burns I shift the blame To the worm in the bottle I shift the blame To anyone standing before me I check-up the once over Give yourself an opening Keep your mouth shut In the event of an accident Contact the following A certain air An invading smile Inbreeding seals the flaw I shift the blame To the worm in the bottle I shift the blame To anyone standing before me Silk skin paws Hang by both feet Embracing the world Hang the expense Breuel's cut corners Wring out the senses I have nothing like it I've seen nothing like it I shift the blame To the worm in the bottle I shift the blame To anyone standing before me
