Switchblade, switchblade, my lovely friend I held you so close we two till the bitter end One pierce, one cut, one was one too much For you, my love, I offer my blood Pen knife, pen knife, C'mon all cheer! For the words we sing conjures tears One word, a mutter, with such restrain
For me, my love, scribe me your pain Stiletto, my stiletto! Will I, may I see you again tomorrow? One on one: we two in your room We need not be bride or groom One pierce, one cut, one was one too much For you, my love, I offer my blood
