lyrics

'Knockout'

I got your girlfriend lying in my bed
Aint she a knockout
About as good as it gets
That girl’s a knockout
Ooohhh she’s a wild one
Her hip leather whips like a shot from a gun
As my head hits the floor for the count for the knockout

Your girl’s tracing down my chest
But hands on lock-down
She’s nicotine I need a fix
I just can’t cut her out
Got the keys to the heavens
Satanico tease escape trick ‘fore I’m done
My head hit’s the floor for the count for the knockout

Her eyes lit up when I walked in the room
Sensed her bedevilment know you did too
How does it feel man it must turn you green
Knowing your pretty little city cowgirl is riding round town on me

Little rockabilly queen doll of the Dalston scene
Rocking tattoos wearing lucky 13
Drinking bourbon dressed in red
Wrapped pins tight in fishnets
Oh then she b-b-b-b-bites

I got your girlfriend lying in my bed
Oh what a woman
Left a tattoo up on my neck
As she draws my blood up
Man you can’t tame a wild one
You can’t please your girl sorry son when we’re done
Her head hits the floor for the count for the knockout

Joyzine was equally impressed, describing Burning Condors' sound as using “...a modern art punk filter to come up with something fresh and new. Imagine Nick Cave sipping whiskey with John Spencer in a Hoxton dive bar.” ... more
