Lyrics Tindersticks

Tindersticks

The Hungry Saw

Mean smiles when the devil drives

He's been driving the old way

He's got a hungry saw

He wants to tear it all up now

A grind of speed and a one night stand

Left my baby in the devil's hands

He's got a hungry saw

He wants to tear it all up now

He's got a hungry saw

First carve is the skin

The second is the muscle

There's a crack of the bone

And he's at your heart

Yeah, there's a crack of the bone

(And he's at your heart)

Hello darkness, my old friend

It's time to jerk those tears again

He works that saw so painlessly

Those devil's hands

Those devil's hands I know

I feel them on my skin

First carve is the skin

The second is the muscle

There's a crack of the bone

And he's at your heart

Yeah, there's a crack of the bone

(And he's at your heart)
