Flesh And Blood Lyrics - Brief History - The Waifs

There are secrets in the soul of me 

Things I keep inside 

Places you will never see 

Hidden under lock and key 

Flesh and blood and skin and bone 

You're looking from the outside in 

All you'll see is what you're shown 

Flesh and blood and skin and bone 

It's par for the course it's a matter of fact 

People are all the same 

They want to make my business theirs 

Slandering my good name 

All around my neighbourhood 

People trying to say that I aint no good 

Pointing their finger at me and mine 

Look at whats hanging on my clothesline 

Flesh and blood and skin and bone 

whats mine is mine is mine alone 

Stand at the window on your tippy toes 

Blinds are down- skin and bone 

Ashes come to ashes 

Dust becomes to dust 

My scret soul will never die 

As my body surely must 

When I'm buried under the ground 

I'll still be here in kind 

Invisible and sinister 

The things I leave behind 

Flesh and bone and skin and blood 

Bury me deep beneath the mud 

When I die only thing thats gone 

Flesh and blood, skin and bone. 

And flesh and skin and bone 

What's mine is mine is mine alone 

All you see is what you're shown 

Flesh and blood, skin and bone.
