Flick-Knife

She walks down in stockings to the courtroom judge
She'd like to kiss the attendant but her make-up would smudge
Her hands were shaking and her arm was bruised
She never thought she'd have so much to lose
She smiles, she smiles like a flick-knife

She wears cheap earrings and her dress is cut
Her care-free lipstick is as red as blood
I'd like to go and talk to her but I know I'd choke
I'd like to ask her out but you know I'm broke
She smiles, she smiles like a flick-knife

She'd make love to the whole damn town
If she thought it would help get her career off the ground
She doesn't need that much help
Yes, she smiles, she smileslike a flick-knife
She smiles, she smiles like a flick-knife

(Repeat chorus to fade)
