Twisted Nerve

Ooh she moves like a racehorse

And her eyes shiver, shift and curve

When she cries, it's like a galeforce

Because she is suffering from a twisted nerve

Twisted nerve

She went and married him when she was only twenty

Twisted nerve

Twisted nerve

We always knew that he would leave her cold and empty

Twisted nerve

(Chorus)

The human heart never skips a beat

The human heart tears her apart

But she'll always be out there waiting

When he talks it's like a perfume

But she knows it's a poison gas

So she puts his hand where her heart is

So he can feel it shattering

Like a pane of glass

Twisted nerve

When she found him we all thought she'd got religion

Twisted nerve

Twisted nerve

Hear the sound of prayers coming from the kitchen

Twisted nerve

(Chorus)

The human heart tears her apart

But she'll always be out there waiting

Twisted nerve, twisted nerve, twisted nerve, twisted nerve

Now she waits in the bedroom

She's awake, he's asleep

She treats his heart like an heirloom

He drags hers shivering through the street

(Chorus)

The human heart never skips a beat

The human heart tears her apart

But she'll always be out there waiting

The human heart tears her apart

But she'll always be out there waiting
