Flick of The Wrist (Mercury) 1974 Songtext
von Queen

"Dislocate your spine if you don′t sign," he says
"I'll have you seeing double"

Mesmerize you when he′s tongue-tied
Simply with those eyes
Synchronize your minds and see
The beast within him rise

Don't look back
Don't look back
It′s a rip off


Flick of the wrist
And you′re dead, baby
Blow him a kiss
And you're mad
Flick of the wrist
He′ll eat your heart out
A dig in the ribs
And then a kick in the head
He's taken an arm and taken a leg
(All this time, honey)
Baby, you′ve been had

"Intoxicate your brain with what I'm saying"
"If not, you′ll lie in knee deep trouble"

"Prostitute yourself," he says
Castrate your human pride
Sacrifice your leisure days
Let me squeeze you 'till you've dried

Don′t look back
Don′t look back
It's a rip off

Work my fingers to my bones
I scream with pain
I still make no impression

Seduce you with his money make machine
Cross collateralize, (big time money, money)
Reduce you to a muzak fake machine
Then the last goodbye
It′s a rip off


Flick of the wrist
And you're dead, baby
Blow him a kiss
And you′re mad
Flick of the wrist
He'll eat your heart out
A dig in the ribs
And then a kick in the head
He′s taken an arm and taken a leg
(All this time, honey)
