Sparklehorse - King Of Snails lyrics

the toothless kiss of skeletons and the summer hail I'm the king of nails I drink my liquor from the palm of a child who spoke in tongues and smelled like sun give all your leaves to the ghosts in the trees to sink or to shine the nails are all mine and blood was rushing up the stairs I shut my eyes and k**ed the co*k when the sun came knocking oh to taste the salty oil of your chest and on your eyes when the sting is on the rise sleep in the fire with snakes I have sired to sink or to shine the nails are all mine I drink my liquor from the palm of a child who spoke in tongues and smelled like sun the toothless kiss of skeletons and the summer hail I'm the king of nails give all your leaves to the ghosts in the trees to sink or to shine the nails are all mine sleep in the fire with snakes I have sired to sink or to shine the nails are all mine
