8. Switchblade Man (3:26)
The street´s his home
´Cause he´s got nowhere to go
Runnin´ from the arm of the law
The switchblade man
He makes his livin´ from things
That people exchange for their souls
He chills the nighttime air
When least expected he´s there
He´s the switchblade man, yeah
His cut is quick. His cut is clean
He´s livin´ on the edge of obscene
Razor sharp maniac stalkin´ his prey
Ya get away before it´s too late
He´s always one step ahead
But one day he´ll pay for his sins
Chorus:
Should you dare to walk the night
Be prepared to pay the price
Should you meet him face to face
Realize it´s your mistake
The city´s unsafe since
He planted his seed
He´s using life to flower his greed
He´s frontpage news
And still on the loose
Tomorrow could be you or me
He´s got a hold on us now
We´re only pawns to his crown
(Chorus)
It´s too late to run
´Cause he´s comin´ behind
Cuts you with his stainless pride
The warning was out
But you didn´t take heed
Now he´s left your body to bleed
Oh heaven help our city´s pain
Take this beast who´s gone insane
´Cause he´s got nowhere to go
Runnin´ from the arm of the law
The switchblade man
He makes his livin´ from things
That people exchange for their souls
He chills the nighttime air
When least expected he´s there
He´s the switchblade man, yeah
His cut is quick. His cut is clean
He´s livin´ on the edge of obscene
Razor sharp maniac stalkin´ his prey
Ya get away before it´s too late
He´s always one step ahead
But one day he´ll pay for his sins
Chorus:
Should you dare to walk the night
Be prepared to pay the price
Should you meet him face to face
Realize it´s your mistake
The city´s unsafe since
He planted his seed
He´s using life to flower his greed
He´s frontpage news
And still on the loose
Tomorrow could be you or me
He´s got a hold on us now
We´re only pawns to his crown
(Chorus)
It´s too late to run
´Cause he´s comin´ behind
Cuts you with his stainless pride
The warning was out
But you didn´t take heed
Now he´s left your body to bleed
Oh heaven help our city´s pain
Take this beast who´s gone insane
