Woundup tighter than a cheap watch Wind it up and watch how the time flies Little white teeth wound around what sounds like more cheap lies Little black clouds suck us up into the sky Wound up where the Christmas lights stay up all year And it takes the barman half an hour just to get me another beer Was it just for kicks or was it in and out of fear One step closer, two stepping posers get a little kings lear One foot on the gas, two feet from Tennessee L ittle hand on the twelve-gauge and the big Hand swinging free Well, I made you look but I could not make you see Look down at your shoes 'cause the tie that binds Was untied by me Rebel rouser and the e-string is my last nerve Ringing out like a stabbing pain It's the last call, and I'm calling on Something that they don't serve Like a double shot of that ball and chain Spoonful of absence makes my heart grow fonder Spoonful of absinthe makes my mind to wander Spoonful of sugar down at the candy store I got a string around your sweet tooth, baby And I'm getting up to slam the door Wound up tighter than a cheap watch Wind it up and watch how the time flies Little white teeth wound around what sounds like more cheap lies Little black clouds suck us up into the skies Little black clouds suck us up into the skies
