Tindersticks The Hungry Saw song lyrics

Needs must when the devil drives

He's been driving me all the way

He's got a hungry saw

He wants to tear it all up now

A gram of speed and a one-night stand

I left my baby in the devils hands

He's got an hungry saw

He wants to tear it all up now

He's got a hungry saw …

The first cut is the skin

The second is the muscle

There's a crack of the bone

And he's at your heart

There's a crack of the bone …

(And he's at your heart.)

Hello darkness my old friend

It's time to jerk those tears again

And he works that saw … so painlessly

Oh, those devils hands

Those devils hands … (oh no)

I feel them on my skin

And I love them so …

Those devils hands

(2x)

The first cut is the skin

The second is the muscle

There's a crack of the bone

And he's at your heart

There's a crack of the bone

And he's at your heart

And there's no need to 'phone home

'Cos your mother's out, with someone who ain't your dad

Those devils hands … (oh no)

Those devils hands …
