Neko Case - Dirty Knife lyrics

So suddenly the madness came
With it's whiskered, wolven, ether pangs
He locked the door and he shut the blinds
He laid down on the floor
And he slept like iron
While the dirty knife worked
Deep into his spine

The blood runs crazy the blood runs crazy

Cascading letters pool on the stairs
The grass is high, the cats are wild
You can't even touch the tip of their tails
And the blood runs crazy with giant strides

He sang nursery rhymes to paralyze
The wolves that eddy out the
Corner of his eyes
But they squared him frozen where he stood
In the glow of the furniture
Piled high for firewood

And the blood runs crazy with giant strides
And the woodsman failed to breach
Those fangs in time
So they dragged him through the underbrush
Wearing three winter coats and a dirty knife

Krichit shaleno, strekoche zubami
La da da da
