She Twists The Knife Again Lyrics - Live From Austin, Tx - Richard Thompson

I keep my nose clean, I keep my speech plain 

I keep my promises, she twists the knife again 

I shut my memory, I close my eyes and then 

She takes another bite, she twists the knife again 

She never leaves me my dignity 

Makes a dunce of me in mixed company 

No bygone can be a bygone 

She throws the spanner in, she puts the screws on 

In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again 

When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again 

When I think I'm off the hook she gets me 

She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again

I make my moves well, I let her tell me when 

I walk a fine line, she twists the knife again 

Just when the scar heals, just when the grip unbends 

Just when her mind reels, she twists the knife again 

She can give it out, she can't take it 

She smells something bad, she has to rake it 

I bring home my packet, my white-collar money 

I'm in a fist fight, she thinks she's Gene Tunney 

In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again 

When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again 

When I think I'm off the hook she gets me 

She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again 

She never leaves me my dignity 

Makes a dunce of me in mixed company 

No bygone can be a bygone 

She throws the spanner in, she puts the screws on
