The sharp ends of the stick I know something of your past A woman showed the whites of her eyes These are the waves where you're pushed about These are the waves where you're pushed about And A guy was leaving, he couldn't get his coat on He had the loudest phone in the world When it rang this is all you could hear Deh-deh-deh-deh-deh Deh-deh-deh-deh-deh Deh-deh-deh-deh-deh Deh-deh-deh-deh-deh A dream in an egg Or words to that effect Some questions answered Some questions answered oh yeah They never spared the rod for us, no They never spared the rod for us That's life, that's lies That's life, that's lies You knew the reasons would be hidden You knew the reasons would be hidden Answers are useless dogs Answers are useless dogs Gone battle in sewer Car parked on manhole cover When you're treated like the water When you're treated like the water Like the water, like the water Like the water Third rate in business terms Spraying millefiori ribbon It's not dark enough, it's not large enough It's not dark enough, it's not large enough The bulge in my shirts, and the pledge in my ear The sun in my eyes The man can die sometimes The sun in my eyes The man can die Sometimes I was ruined too much, so unable to rise Ruined too much, so unable to rise Rise rise Rise rise Rise rise Rise rise The sharp ends of the stick The sharp ends of the stick The sharp ends of the stick!
