Spoek Mathambo - War on Words Lyrics




You f*ck like you love me
You want me to crash
You f*ck to bring me down
The words out your mouth
They cease to make sense
They spin me all around
I have to pretend to do what I want
Like I don't hate your guts
Inside your friends, chasing the sun
I'm chasing with my tongue

Hook
----
Deploying my tanks and cleaning my guns
For war on words
Battle lines drawn, sharpenin swords
For war on words
Shooting my guns i shot em too soon
For war on words
Solemn we march, love to its tomb
For war on Words.
We war
We war on words

Verse 2
--------
Your kissing like knives
Cutting with smiles
I bleed to get you off
Your daggerlike thighs and hips like clubs
They whisk and beat me soft
A sucker for traps
A loser for booze
A sucker in your mouth
A fortress of meaning
For meaning a tomb, behind enemy lines


Hook
----
Deploying my tanks and cleaning my guns
For war on words
Battle lines drawn, sharpenin swords
For war on words
Shooting my guns i shot em too soon
For war on words
Solemn we march, love to its tomb
For war on Words.
We war
We war on words

Verse3
------
Wildlife, dragons drenched in sweat
Bullet riddled sheets to bed
Pig in the middle of your head
Greedy eating what I said
Thick as thieves worst of friends
Never ever past tense
Passed stupid nonsense
Wet your face wet with spit
Talk to the hand converse with it
We creep through teh curtain slit
After the stage is cleared
No one there to hear our words afit
And love turned to a hellish pit
Worms turn and nurture it and ash to
Remind us where the fire was once lit.
