Lyrics A Tooth For an Eye (Shaken-Up Live Version) - The Knife

Under the sun
Look what we have got
And those who have said
Red love

We've been running 'round
Pushing the shopping cart
January 2012
Even in the suburbs, so run!

A brick in a castle, a camp for those on the run
Dance as weapons

Release my eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
Tell me you
Some other kid is sucking on my thumb
Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
Tell me you
Another kid needs to suck on my thumb

Under the sun
Picking piles of
Flowers for the flowers' pot
It's all that I've got
On my doorstep
A screaming hand
I'm telling you stories
Trust me, ooh!

Rewrite history
To suit our needs
Open my country

A tooth for an eye, eyes, eyes, eyes
Tell me you
Some other kid is sucking on my thumb
Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
Tell me you
Another kid needs to suck on my thumb

Border's lies, the idea of what's mine
A strange desire
Drawing lines with a ruler
Bring the fuel to the fire

Border's lies, the idea of what's mine
A strange desire
Drawing lines with a ruler
Bring the fuel to the fire, woo!
