Lyrics Nuno Bettencourt

Nuno Bettencourt

Iron Jaw

Man is unfinished animal

feeding on helpless spoken word

why can't this iron jaw elate

and speak with the tongues of angels

Hey, do you hear a word i say

a simple you're ok is underrated

is there anyone listening

hey don't turn and walk away

a vital you're ok i think would do it

is there anyone listening

There are words more precious than jewels

buried beneath the thought of you

they hide in the corner of your soul

a verbal kaleidoscope

This detonator in my mouth

armed with some touchy dynamite

blasting a pocketful of screams

scattering frequencies

Calling iron jaw

can't you hear me call

i'm right here

Thought keep it in the vault

it's not your fault

no one likes to hear the pain

killers killer pain so insane

asylum where you live large

but who's in charge card

credit check reject eject

cassette tape is stuck pig

got an apple in your mouth

you know you gotta dial

1 800 help you need somebody

help is on the way

out of breath

start to shake speare

without a pen you vow to escape

from the jaws of life

sucks then you die

it's a lie on the beach

soaking up the son of god

'cause he can hear you
