4. Six Blade Knife (4:13)
Your six-blade knife
Do anything for you
Anything you want it to

One blade for breaking my heart
One blade for tearing me apart
Your six-blade knife
Do anything for you

You take away my mind
Like you take away the top of a tin
When you come up from behind me
You lay it down cold on my skin
Took a stone from my soul
When I was lame
Just so you could make me tame
Yes, you take away my mind
Like you take away the top of a tin

I'd like to be free of it, babe
I don't want it no more
I'd like to be free of it now
Hmm, I don't want it no more

Everybody got a knife
It can be just what you want it to be
A needle, a wife
Or something that you just can't see
Six-blade knife, keep you strong
Yes and it'll do me wrong
Your six-blade knife
Do anything for you
Do anything, anything for you
Anything
