Axegrinder - Hoodoo Gurus

My edge is keen and I’ve honed my skill

Got nerves of steel and an iron will

My skin is bronze, my trim is chrome

Climb aboard, I’ll drive you home

I’m a silver — tongued devil with a heart of gold

When I was made they broke the mould

My blood runs hot, like molten lead

Pump you full, I’m gonna knock you dead

I don’t mince words, I spit 'em out

I won’t leave room for any doubt

Get to the point, stop splitting hairs

That ain’t getting either of us anywhere

Sometimes it’s better to be blunt

But is this some kind of publicity stunt?

So far you’ve whet my appetite

Do you wanna grind with me tonight?

Me tonight

Grind

Axegrinder, I’m not famous for my tact

Axegrinder, I’ve gotta sharpen up my act

Axegrinder, try and see things through my eyes

Everything and everyone gets cut back down to size

On the brink of who knows what?

We’ve gotta strike while the iron’s hot

I can hold your hand, try to guide you through

But I can’t make your moves for you

Uh, ow!

Axegrinder, try and see things through my eyes

Everything and everyone gets cut back down to size

I swing my blade, that’s how it’s done

Don’t stop me now, I’ve only just begun

I was told when I was young

I wouldn’t work in an iron lung

Now I learned a trick or two

I been working up a sweat for you

Sweat for you

For you

You

Axegrinder, I’m not famous for my tact

Axegrinder, I’ve gotta sharpen up my act

Axegrinder, yeah (Yeah)

Ow!
