lyrics

Everything I say about it just comes out all snaggletooth
It's never quite good enough but it's never quite wrong enough
They cut me up just enough and the demons came rushing out
The wicked teeth, the wicked tongues, It's all I need

A foot in the mouth, a foot in the door
I am just a broken man in a broken world
A foot in the mouth, a foot in the door
I am just a broken man in a broken world

When I look up in the rear view mirror
there's a road that heads up into the sky
But when I turn the car around, it's never really there at all
They cut me up just enough. The demons came rushing out
The wicked teeth, the wicked tongues, It's all I need

A foot in the mouth, a foot in the door, I am just a broken man in a broken world
A foot in the mouth, a foot in the door, I am just a broken man in a broken world
