Stranglers - Lucky Finger lyrics

rate me

I for a sign in the sky

But I got the evil eye

And the ritual sacrifice

Came back to life

I threw down the bones

But they made no connection

And the hand of Fatima stuck in my throat

Lucky finger point at me

File me in famous and drown me in floodlights

Lucky finger write my name

Set it in universe paint it in letters of flame

Now I've done all I can by the sweat of my body

And I've prayed my last prayer

And abandoned all hope

I'll raise my face and give thanks to the heavens

When the spear of destiny scratches my rib

These are the words of the animals

Animals
