Every Tooth a Tombstone Songtext

von James Reyne

Oooh don't it make you wanna run for cover
The cafe' bars won't close up for the night
Oooh you know I'm breaking out all over
A pasta here and I passed her there
And ooh she looked a fright
All those scary little creatures of the night
Come on out and tell me it's all right

[Chorus: ~]
And then you smiled
Every tooth a tombstone
And when you smiled
Every tooth a tombstone

Oooh you know I'm keepin' out of reach
Another two-door Falcon passed me by
Oooh they don't even got a beach
Don't need a little mountain baby
Ooh I gotta fly
We'll go dancin' on the cosmic surfer's grave
One foot in a wetsuit
One foot on a wave
All those scary little creatures of the night
Come on out and tell me it's all right

[Chorus]

South of the river everything is alright
We're just sharp as a razor
We're just high as a kite
So young and golden
Don't it make you shiver
Beautiful forever boys
South of the river
Down south

[Chorus]

Smiled
Every tooth a tombstone
Smiled
Every tooth a tombstone
Every tooth a tombstone
Every tooth a tombstone
