When he goes through your head
Now it's all petty crime on the news at nine but it's all she's got
There's always someone new to toy with
Maybe they should be hung by their tongues
Sister said, "I told you so too"
Sister said, "I told you so too"
White knuckles on black and blue skin
White knuckles sweatin' on the headboard
It doesn't matter if your face doesn't fit
When he goes through your head
White knuckles on black and blue skin
Never found out what the kisser was for
It makes you as miserable as sin
Mama said, "He's using you"
White knuckles on black and blue skin
Love on the never never dreams don't come cheap
When the penny drops in the slot
Mama said, "He's using you"
Ooh ooh, it gets right under your skin
Ooh ooh, under the blankets with the body jerk
He didn't mean to hit her but she kept laughing
Mama said, "He's using you"
He didn't mean to hit her but she kept laughing
Maybe they weren't loved when they were young
You don't have to take it so you just give in
You don't have to take it when he gets cruel
White knuckles sweatin' on the headboard
You took him to be true
Losing face with the boys while she's whispering in his ear
Never found out what the kisser was for
You don't have to take it so you just give in
Ooh ooh, what are you doing?
When he goes through your head
Sister said, "I told you so too"
There's no charge for changing it
You don't have to take it so you just give in
Never found out what the kisser was for
They never found out why they called it laughing gear
Never found out what the kisser was for
White knuckles sweatin' on the headboard
Why don't you come round anymore?
Making a mockery of his fancy footwork
I don't close my eyes when I go to sleep
He needs her like the axe needs the turkey
White knuckles sweatin' on the headboard
You see right through him
White knuckles on black and blue skin
You took him to be true
