Silk Skin Paws

Wire · 1985-1990: The A List [2006]

You have nothing to fear

I'm just making enquiries

Dog bone hunting

Gives you back to yourself



Standing before me

The gargoyle turns

Jutting jaws

And the stubble burns



I shift the blame

To the worm in the bottle

I shift the blame

To anyone standing before me



I check up the once over

Give yourself an opening

Keep your mouth shut

In the event of an accident



Contact the following

A certain air

An invading smile

Inbreeding seals the flaw



Silk skin paws

Hang by both feet

Embracing the world

Hang the expense



Breuel's cut corners

Wring out the senses

I have nothing like it

I've seen nothing like it
