Iron Jaw Lyrics - Nuno Bettencourt

man is unfinished animal 

feeding on helpless spoken word 

why can't this iron jaw elate 

and speak with the tongues of angels 

hey do you hear a word i say 

a simple you're ok is underrated 

is there anyone listening 

hey don't turn and walk away 

a vital you're ok i think would do it 

is there anyone listening 

there are words more precious than jewels 

buried beneath the thought of you 

they hide in the corner of your soul 

a verbal kaleidoscope 

this detonator in my mouth 

armed with some touchy dynamite 

blasting a pocketful of screams 

scattering frequencies 

calling iron jaw 

can't you hear me call 

i'm right here 

thought keep it in the vault 

it's not your fault 

no one likes to hear the pain 

killers killer pain so insane 

asylum where you live large 

but who's in charge card 

credit check reject eject 

cassette tape is stuck pig 

got an apple in your mouth 

you know you gotta dial 

1 800 help you need somebody 

help is on the way 

out of breath 

start to shake speare 

without a pen you vow to escape 

from the jaws of life 

sucks then you die 

it's a lie on the beach 

soaking up the son of god 

'cause he can hear you
