Spit Of Love Lyrics

Spit Of Love lyrics

There's a howlin at my window, baby  

 I hear him closin in  

 That green-eyed jackal's got the scent  

 Knows I'll let him in  

 He slinks in by me at the fire  

 More bitter than the cold  

 And it's a rage as old as Hades  

 That'll sputter on these coals  

 I'm callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin  

 I'm roasting on the spit of love again  

 I never have believed you  

 But I stick around for more  

 Somethin bout that hollow in your eyes  

 There's a darkness at the core  

 Well, it's got me slowly turnin  

 I'm basting on the bone  

 I'm skewered like some drunken fool  

 In juices all my own  

 Callin the Furies' carrion choir  

 Singin me back upon the pyre  

 I'm roasting on that spit of love again  

 You can call it what you want  

 But it's lyin just the same  

 There's no mercy in these ashes, baby  

 When your love's a cryin shame  

 And they're howlin in moonlight, baby  

 They're here to call my bluff  

 they're wonderin if there'll ever come a day  

 When I'll have finally had enough  

 I'm callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin  

 I'm roasting on that spit of love again
