Sick Man

Lyrics

[Verse] Lurchin' round the parking lot A man possessed of not a lot Skin and bones and rings and crown Legs reach right down to the ground Swivel hips and loose lips Stab the dagger, turn it round His life's an open book Scribbled in his own blood [Chorus] His constant companion is always at hand Making entries in his diary The diary of Sick Man [Verse] Overcome by waves of lechery One for you sixteen for me Kill the monkey on his back He kisses big, he kisses black Profile of Neanderthal Leaves his debris in the hall Pushover furniture, barroom brawls Taking notes from toilet walls His victim screams, he has a ball The bigger the head, the harder they fall [Chorus] He lives a life of luxury, he lives a life of misery The entries in his diary are the entries of Sick Man His constant companion is always at hand Making entries in his diary The diary of Sick Man [Verse] His pen's as mighty as his sword Bites off more than he can afford The torture-meister relishing Intimidating everything Typewriter rhythms drowning the Newly acquired insecurity Gets in fights, stays up nights Rends and mends companion's tights Forcing symptoms of his own disease A boil for you, Black Plague for me [Chorus] His constant companion is always at hand Making entries in his diary The diary of Sick Man His constant companion is always at hand Making entries in his diary The diary of Sick Man [Verse] Blackheaded Blackguard with a blackjack Laced his coffee with spoons of RATSAK Hangs his trophies on walls of his place Hangs his carrots in front of his own face Lust and greed has swallowed him Tearing limb from hymn to limb He's worried now, he got a gun Swallowed in his clammy hams All he got for Christmas was A chip on his shoulder And a constant reminder [Bridge] Left companion in pool of blood She had tried to make him taste his own medicine Gone down dead end alleyway "Hey, Sick Man! Suck this, Sick Man! Eat hot lead!" He's grinding, shaking, dancing dead Illegal entries in his diary, the diary of Sick Man [Chorus] His constant companion was always at hand She is an entry in the diary The diary of Sick Man His constant companion always at hand Making entries in his diary The diary of Sick Man Illegal entries in his diary, diary of Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man [Outro] Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man Sick Man!
