A Knife for the Girls Songtext

von The Long Blondes

You gave me a chance at the palais de danse to prove i'm worth your time
You gave me a chance to prove i'm more than just an also-ran

A knife for the girls who want to come home for just one night
A knife for the girls who never return your calls
You gave me a chance at the palais de danse to prove i'm worth your time
You gave me a chance to prove i'm more than just an also-ran

Something happened to change your mind
Something happened, I don't know why

And now I reach for your hand and you cut me again
You've got a knife for the girls and a knife for the men
I don't mind seeing your face around
But we can NEVER SPEAK AGAIN

A knife for the men who've taken the heat off you this time
A knife for the men who keep you awake at night
This could be the last time you can say for sure
You know i'm there if you need a girl...

Something happened to change your mind
Something happened, I don't know why

And now you reach for my hand and you cut me again
You've got a knife for the girls and a knife for the men
I don't mind seeing your face around
But we can NEVER SPEAK AGAIN

Well, in a backroom in harehills
When you said I was a superstar,
What did you mean?
What did you mean?
Harehills
Harehills
Harehills
Well, in a backroom in harehills
What did you mean?

And you reach for my hand and you cut me again
You've got a knife for the girls and a knife for the men
I don't mind seeing your face around
But we can NEVER SPEAK AGAIN

I got my souvenir
I got my souvenir
Well, in a back room in harehills I got my souvenir

My baby doll
DON'T GO TO LONDON...
