Shake Dog Shake Lyrics

    Ha ha ha
    Wake up in the dark
    The after-taste 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 shake shake shake
    Shake shake shake shake
    Shake dog shake
    Shake shake shake shake
    Shake shake shake shake
    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
    My howl my shake dog

    Oh shake dog shake
    Shake shake
    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 shake
    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
