Sticks and Stones

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You and I go together Like the molar and the drill Flesh is weak but darling we know That the ego's weaker still I've been hung, drawn and quartered Slowly slaughtered like a goat By the tongue of a woman Who just couldn't let it go [Chorus] Sticks and stones may break my body But words can tear me apart So be careful when you tell me Spare a thought for my heart [Verse 2] Broken bones fuse together Bruises never last for long But once they're said, words stay spoken And hearts stay broken from that moment on [Chorus] Sticks and stones may break my body But words can tear me apart So be careful when you tell me Spare a thought for my heart
