Lyrics The Icicle Works

The Icicle Works

All The Daughters (of Her Father's House)

(McNabb)

Forgive me for the state I'm in

They cut the rope that I was climbing

Tally with incentive

You should slip down here

and taste the poison

Small fat man with case in hand,

Surveys the situation,

Brother the small price of a bicycle

isn't mine

We'll be watching, we'll be waiting

Heavens let you heart decide,

She's all the daughters of her father's house

See the changes, none the wiser,

Ton o'rusty dreams inside her,

All the daughters of her father's house

You and I are old companions,

Can't resist the challenge can we?

Saw you on the television,

Nine years older up and counting,

Father drove the taxi cab,

I'd sit below the meter,

If you'd try to hail us,

We'd have passed you by

We'll be watching, we'll be waiting

Heavens let you heart decide,

She's all the daughters of her father's house

See the changes, none the wiser,

Ton o'rusty dreams inside her,

All the daughters of her father's house

Can't pin it down, I'm confused

been abused but maybe not

Giv'em greed would not bite

the hand that feeds
