Robyn Hitchcock - St. Petersburg lyrics
[Robyn Hitchcock - St. Petersburg lyrics]
In St petersburg, in the night
Where the light shines down on the snow
On the banisters, what a mess
I can`t guess at what I don`t know
She cuts like a knife she cuts like a wife
She cuts like someone I once knew
She cuts like a stream flows into my dream
You cut me and I bleed for you
And in Williamsburg by the lake
Where the stake went deep in your heart
On the banisters, it`s alright
It`s so tight that it drives you apart
She hangs from a hook she hangs like a crook
Had gone and hung her up there
She spins `round and `round
Three feet off the ground
But why she does, I don`t care
She cuts like a knife she cuts like a wife
She cuts like someone I once knew
She cuts like a stream flows into your dream
You cut me and I bleed for
Where the light shines down on the snow
On the banisters, what a mess
I can`t guess at what I don`t know
She cuts like a knife she cuts like a wife
She cuts like someone I once knew
She cuts like a stream flows into my dream
You cut me and I bleed for you
And in Williamsburg by the lake
Where the stake went deep in your heart
On the banisters, it`s alright
It`s so tight that it drives you apart
She hangs from a hook she hangs like a crook
Had gone and hung her up there
She spins `round and `round
Three feet off the ground
But why she does, I don`t care
She cuts like a knife she cuts like a wife
She cuts like someone I once knew
She cuts like a stream flows into your dream
You cut me and I bleed for
