She keeps grindin’ her axes
And needin’ the dough
Is she a butcher or a baker?
It’s much too early to know
She was raised on Tanqueray
And forged prescription sheets
She says her schooldays are all a blur
She was educated out on the streets
(Blackouts are fine when you’re just wastin’ time-x2
Just wastin’ time-x2)
She’s got a corpse in her closet
Deception drips from her bones
She’s pushin’ pins in a puppet
She’s been outta touch for too long
There was that hotel raid in Marrakesh
But they didn’t find the jewels
She was flyin’ high overhead
She was never anybody’s fool
(Blackouts are fine when you’re just wastin’ time-x2
Just wastin’ time-x2)

(It’s all a game of survival my friend
And I’m afraid that you’re stuck on the wrong end-x2)
She’ll lock you in with her eyes
And rip the truth right outta your head
And when you ask her why she did it
She’ll say some things are better left unsaid
And when you feel like you just lost some blood
Brother, I’m certain that you did
She’s been bleedin’ you for years now
It’s a wonder that you ain’t dead
(Blackouts are fine when you’re just wastin’ time-x2
Just wastin’ time-x2)
