The Hungry Saw Songtext
von Tindersticks

Needs must when the devil drives
He′s been driving me all the way
He's got a hungry saw
He wants to tear it all up now

A gram of speed and a one-night stand
I left my baby in the devils hands
He′s got an hungry saw
He wants to tear it all up now
He's got a hungry saw ...

The first cut is the skin
The second is the muscle
There's a crack of the bone
And he′s at your heart
There′s a crack of the bone ...
(And he's at your heart.)


Hello darkness my old friend
It′s time to jerk those tears again
And he works that saw ... so painlessly

Oh, those devils hands
Those devils hands ... (oh no)
I feel them on my skin
And I love them so ...
Those devils hands

(2x)
The first cut is the skin
The second is the muscle
There's a crack of the bone

And he′s at your heart
There's a crack of the bone
And he′s at your heart

And there's no need to 'phone home
′Cos your mother′s out, with someone who ain't your dad

Those devils hands ... (oh no)
Those devils hands ...
