Headbutt Lyrics - Singles - The King Blues

She had a scream that rattled 

The seeds inside the apples 

When she uncaged her cackle 

Jackals travelled just to battle 

She gives the girls screwface 

And the men crooked neck 

When she walked by my place 

I heard a string quartet 

Asthmatics lose their breath 

The traffic all gets wrecked 

The Smokers laps collect 

All Their dropped cigarettes 

Kids fall onto the decks 

Cos they don't watch their steps 

And when they're on the floor 

They draw her on their etch a sketch 

She says that life is like a jungle 

and not like a zoo 

Participate, don't spectate, 

Become the view 

Man if Scarface said it 

It's just got to be true 

So this world, this world right here 

This world is for you 

I said to all my mates, she won't make a monkey out of me 

But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt 

It felt like a headbutt 

Staring up at the ceiling 

Nurses face disbelieving 

Scalpel on arteries 

Organs taken larcenies 

Holds it up like a trophy 

But that heart belongs to Sophie 

Slices pieces of me 

Each one beats individually 

So now I bite the bullet 

I'll try to chew right through it 

Grinds my teeth to the gums 

I gots to see what I've become 

There is danger ahead 

With a mouthful of lead 

but when I fly 

It gets harder to deny 

So I stood on the shore trying to blow the clouds away 

Right back into the sky made out of papier mache 

The Sparkles from the moon, danced on top of the waves 

Like they knew it was the last song ever to be played 

I said to all my mates, she won't make a monkey out of me 

But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt 

It felt like a headbutt 

She was up high on the stage just dancing it 

Breathing fire like God himself had demanded it 

Like he'd personally asked and commanded it 

Heaven's packed but thanks to her they're still cramming it 

She made the sinners blessed by the way that she dressed 

Stripteasing, fire breathing, dancing burlesque 

Producing beads of cold sweats on mens foreheads 

She says welcome to the city of the suffragettes 

And if you step out with me you'd better step correct 

I said to all my mates, she won't make a monkey out of me 

But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt 

It felt like a headbutt
