Zoo X-Ray - Laughs the Knife Lyrics

I took a stab at the quiet life, but I never got a handle on it
I took a stab at the quiet life, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
I took a stab at the quiet life, but I never got a handle on it
I took a stab at the quiet life, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
I wanted to sharpen your dull advice, but I never got the angle on it
I wanted to sharpen your dull advice, laughs the knife, laughs the knife

I cut off my cast with a kitchen knife, and I don't wanna talk about it
Don't tell my doctor, don't tell my wife, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
I cut off my boots with a Bowie knife, and I don't wanna talk about it
I cut off my boots but don't tell my wife, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
Well I cut off my pants with a paring knife, but I don't wanna talk about it
Don't tell my tailor, don't tell my wife, laughs the knife, laughs the knife

What's the point of all this strife? I never got a handle on it
You wanna make the cut, you gotta pay the price, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
You just flick your switchblade eyes and slice, I never got a handle on it
You wanna keep your edge, you gotta pay the price, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
Well I wanna sharpen the edge of your dull advice but I don't wanna talk about it
You made the cut, now pay the price, laughs the knife, laughs the knife
