Flesh Wound

We flew over miles of ocean--be prepared.

I don't have the faintest notion who'll be there.

You underestimated; nobody sympathized.

I think you'll soon feel better once we get inside.

I see the door is open -- Why don't we walk right in?

Let's put our party hats on and let the fun begin!

We should have called and said that we were on our way;

Who would have ever guessed that you'd be so unreachable?

Just another flesh wound--another thorn in my side

Just another flesh wound--another wonder-cure that you tried

Just another flesh wound--another scratch on your hide

Just another flesh wound--another irritation you abide

You know the rumour's going that he was synthesized.

And if we had to dress, I wouldn't be surprised.

I say -- you're so outrageous -- you'll go to number one!

They'll have us both arrested for having too much fun.

Just another flesh wound--another scratch on your hide.

Just another flesh wound--another thorn in your side.

Just another flesh wound--another bruise on your pride.

Just another flesh wound--another paranoia that you hide.

And when she held her nose, she took an underdose.

It was nice to see her completely comatose.

You go first, you're completely debonair;

Let's go dutch -- it's only fair.

Just another flesh wound--another thorn in your side.

Just another flesh wound--a minor injury you dignified.

Just another flesh wound--another unsuccessful suicide.

Just another flesh wound--another curse that you ride.
