lyrics

(On to the land of….what he said before where our stooges, I mean heroes, chance upon a local night spot, the Surley Inn, where a less-hip-than-thou crowd throngs to hear local band, “Young Grandpa.” Sensing that all is not too well, they pay the two bucks cover to the grotesque matron at the door, Irmapit, and check out the band….)

10- CUT LIKE A BLADE
“YoungGrandpa”:
Read the other day babe
You’re going away
Tying the knot, trying to please you
Doesn’t seem to win the race
Like Alice through the looking glass, babe
I can’t see the past
And you’re clouding up my future
You cut me like a blade babe
It’s like a knife thru the heart
You can spit out the pieces
Now stop the clock
You cut just like a blade babe
Razor sharp edge smooth
Took what you want ain’t that enough
You cut like a blade

Strength is all it takes babe
What you can’t face
Feeding the flame
If this old good time
Had lost the spark lite why’d you lie?
Like Alice thru the looking glass babe
I can’t see the past
And you’re clouding up the future
You cut me like a blade babe
It’s like a knife thru the heart etc…
