Lyrics

Ha ha ha!
 Wake up in the dark
 The aftertaste of anger in the back of my mouth
 Spit it on the wall
 And cough some more
 And scrape my skin with razor blades
 And make up in the new blood
 And try to look so good
 Follow me!
 Make up in the new blood
 And follow me to where the real fun is
 Ha ha ha!
 As stale and selfish as a sick dog
 Spurning sex like an animal of god
 I'll tear your red hair by the roots
 And hold you blazing
 Hold you cherished in the dead electric light
 Your face
 I'll never see you this way again
 I captured it so perfectly
 As if I knew you'd disappear away
 Shake dog shake
 You hit me again
 You howl and hit me again
 The same sharp pain
 Wakes me in the dark
 And cuts me from my throat to my pounding heart
 My heart
 My shaking heart
 Shake dog shake
 But we slept all night in the virgin's bed
 And dreamed of death
 And breathed like sick dogs
 We slept all night in the virgin's bed
 And breathed like death
 And dreamed of sick dogs
 Shake dog shake
 Wake up wake up wake up!
 Shake dog shake
 Wake up wake up wake up!
 Shake dog shake
 Wake up in the new blood
 Make up in the new blood
 Shake up in the new blood
 And follow me to where the real fun is...
 Shake dog shake
