Siobhan Donaghy - Iodine lyrics

rate me

Hurling ourselves down to the depths

Back since the day lest we forget

'Cos time made us set and memories crept

So now there's political debt

There is no left wing

To fight the right wing

We're like turkeys in a box

Our feathers all plucked off

And we're all ready

For Christmas Day

Here's the paradox:

We're like presents all wrapped up

And we can't wait

For you to give us away

A sad little face

All over the place

The lower you stoop

The less the disgrace

You use all your charms

To send me alone

Have you got the legs

To call us to arms

Like lambs to the slaughter

We paid for your daughters

We're like turkeys in a box

Our feathers all plucked off

And we're all ready

For Christmas Day

Here's the paradox:

We're like presents all wrapped up

And we can't wait

For you to give us away

Like the curve of your love

Like the curve that won't heal up

You know...

We're like turkeys in a box

Our feathers all plucked off

And we're all ready

For Christmas Day

Here's the paradox:

We're like presents all wrapped up

And we can't wait

For you to give us away

We're like turkeys in a box

Our feathers all plucked off

And we're all ready

For Christmas Day

Here's the paradox:

We're like presents all wrapped up

And we can't wait

For you to give us away
