Van Morrison - Philosophy lyrics

There's a taste in my mouth that I never had before

To be a cheater, defeater, are things I won't ignore

Like a rat in a trap your head got in the way

Nothing left of you, but a memory of a bad lay

[Chorus :]

Heads gonna roll (Heads gonna roll)

I'm back in control (back in control)

It's a jungle out there it's gonna eat you up

And strip you bare

I'll swallow you whole (swallow you whole)

Then spit out your soul (spit out your soul)

I wanna make this clear, my dear that heads will roll

There's a look in your eyes, am I the one you dread?

You make me wonder what's going on inside your head

(Inside your head)

You lie and you slither like a cold-blooded snake

I'll make you pay for your big mistake

[Chorus]

When I think of you, I think of this

And then it turns to bitterness

I'm praying for amnesia, I beg for anesthesia

Forget the lies, and numb the pain

If this don't stop I'll go insane

The more I hurt, the more I'll curse your name

[Chorus 2X]

[fade]
