Forked Tongue Kiss

Overkill · Other Songs - Overkill

Long view on the eye a pocketful a pestilence

Got a fistful of momories,a long lost innocence

Hey baby, dead baby devil he embracin' you

With a long forked-tongue-kiss

Suckin' all the life from you

If you need to reach me

I'm broaking one through ten

And if you really need me

Can I get an amen...

Passion on a ??????? gotta get it while it's not

With a self-centered psychopath givin'a lorget-me-not

Rapo me , rape me evrybody gets in line

With a long forked-tongue-kiss

Sucked away the rest of time

Longview in your eye

Seal it with a kiss, you get the...

Long forked tongue kiss

Memory in your fist,you get the..

Long forked tongue kiss

Lay on down in the bad you made

It's a little too late to cry

Or too be afraid

Driven by the high heat, call it love

Driven by the high heat

Of the velvet glove

Call it free-will,call it choice

You know you ain't alone now

There's a swecond voice

When you're not alone

Short view on the eye, a pocketful a' pestilence

With a fistful a' memories, a long lost innocence

B-b-b-baby devil he embracin' you

with a long-forked-tongue-kiss

Suckin' all the life from you
