Woman Sawed In Half |
She was a woman sawed in half |
It was done by a bad magician |
There was a point at which she just had to laugh |
You could appreciate her position |
Her legs in one way, and her head another |
She just kept thinking about walking away |
They tried to put her back together underneath the cover |
But her heart kept getting in, getting in the way |
She was a woman sawed in half |
Lets cut to the chase, love, this was showtime |
And he was sweating bullets, and walking on glass |
Somewhere between the evening news and tomorrow’s headline |
(Buzz awhile.) |
She was a woman sawed in half |
It was done by a bad magician |
Yeah, it was a clear cut thing, no, you didn’t have to ask |
She was gonna have to make her own decisions |
Her legs got up and walked away, and her head came rolling |
Oh, the room was painted black night, and turning dayglow |
She wound up in two places at once, her heart was swollen |
He played his musical saw in the streets of San Diego |
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya |
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya |
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya |
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya |
She was a woman sawed in half, her legs in Tijuana |
She was a bodyless head and trapeze artist in a circus in Bombay |
Now a woman’s gonna do exactly what a woman’s gonna |
Yeah, some bad magicians wouldn’t have it any other way |
She holds on to that trapeze by the skin of her teeth, or so they say |
REPEAT VERSE |
