Teeth Songtext
von Evripidis and His Tragedies

I dreamt I lost my teeth one by one,
They fell from my mouth on the floor of a club
My father helped me pick them up
But they were sliding from our hands
I knew it was a bad sign
And I woke up shivering

I dreamt I lost my teeth one by one
Two weeks later I lost my only love
They say you have to go through trouble
To move on to new ground,
The past has to be torn apart
In order to emerge the future

And I had to move on
And all I was left with
Was some blood-stained teeth
To hide under my pillow


I lost my baby teeth one by one
Now my mouth is like my heart, a swolen hole
But ′til I grow sharper ones
I'll take it slow and easy,
Avoiding trouble and making love just to soft boys
′Til the day I grow my new teeth one by one
They will be sharp and shiny, big and strong
With them I will pay back anyone who gives me hell,
They'll get a nice bite to remember for the rest of their lives

Did it hurt you?
Was there blood?
I just wanted to keep a chunk of you
Inside me forever

Some loves are baby teeth, childish affairs
They have to go away for new ones to take their place
Some loves are wisdom teeth, painful, unecesary trouble
Some loves are normal teeth, once lost they'll never grow back
Our tooth will never grow back
