Put Me in a Terror Pocket Lyrics

He spoke a script
Dipped in the sort of talk to make you keep at bay
It�s all a trick
The slicked back slimy arms have got a war to wage

He�s got a laugh like a crackling wire
And he wants to put the bite marks on you
He wants to put the bite marks on you
And you twist my guts

As the only thing as repelling as his invitations
Of a dusky serf
And he said �I am the conductor,
Put me in a terror pocket�

He never slipped
Master in a craft he swept through respectable
Drop a dirty hint if he thinks that he could impress you with the unacceptable

And he has turned through all the pages with his fingers
And covered them with goo
And he wants to put the bite marks on you
He wants to put them on you and it hurts my back

As the only thing that�s as heavy as the adoration
Is the days of hanging out on the town
And it�s been a long time around
And he frightened me to death when he said
�I am the conductor,
Put me in a terror pocket�

Cause he�s trying to give me a ticket to a competition
And I don�t know why the odds are stacked
As he�s rolling out the running track

Oi! This song is a favourite worst nightmare to figure out. Any input? I've listened far too many times than it is sane to do so and I am still at a loss for this song's particularities. This is at least sorted out better than it was previously. Alex changes the lyrics too, making it impossible to pin down one way.

He spoke a script Dipped in the sort of talk to make you keep the gaze It’s all a trick The slicked back slimy arms have got a war to wage

He’s got a laugh like a crackling wire And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put the bite marks on you And you twist my guts

As the only thing that’s repelling as his invitations Are his excuses And he said I am the conductor, Put me in a terror pocket

And he has turned through all the pages with his fingers And covered them with goo And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put them on you and it hurts my back

As (Because) the only thing that’s as heavy as the adoration Is the days of hanging out on his arm And he spilled with all this sounding alarm And he frightened me to death when he said I am the conductor, Put me in a (the) terror pocket

Cause he’s trying to give me a ticket to a competition And I don’t know why (how) the odds are stacked As he’s rolling out the running track

He did a stint Master in a craft He squint through his spectacle He’d drop a dirty hint if he thinks that he could (can) impress you with the unacceptable

And he has turned through all the pages with his fingers And covered them with goo And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put them on you and it hurts my back
