VERSE 1

 

Out on a late prowl

 

Down a luna lit alley

 

I don’t wanna hear a growl.

 

Hope to find me

 

A girl

 

Who’s friendly.

 

 

Pair of fives on my left

 

A ten is to my right

 

Must have been a prior theft.

 

Cause the girls are locked tight.

 

Behind fences topped with…

 

 

CHORUS 1

 

Razor wire.

 

That’s right I’m stopped by

 

Razor wire.

 

While it looks nice and shiny.

 

The edges sharp, tips are spiny,

 

Ain’t no way I’m getting over

 

Razor wire.

 

 

VERSE 2

 

When outta my yard,

 

Always leave a nice greeting.

 

Natures own business card,

 

For the sweet things

 

I will

 

Be meeting.

 

 

My luck changed when I saw

 

A bitch that blew my mind.

 

And my boy waved me a paw.

 

“Go on leave me behind.”

 

But watch out for that…

 

 

CHORUS 2

 

Razor wire.

 

Don’t get behind that

 

Razor wire.

 

Yeah, it looks nice and shiny.

 

The edges sharp, tips are spiny,

 

Ain’t no way you’d escape from her

 

Razor wire.

 

 

BRIDGE

 

Women say that manly self expression

 

Isn’t something that they’re against.

 

But they demand one small concession,

 

We gotta stay within their fence.

 

A fence that’s topped with...

 

 

BRIDGE CHORUS

 

Razor wire.

 

That’s right I’m caught in

 

Razor wire.

 

Yeah it looks nice and shiny.

 

The edges sharp, tips are spiny,

 

Ain’t no way we’re getting out of

 

Razor wire.

 

 

VERSE 3

 

I’m serving hard time

 

In the prision of passion.

 

Guess I’m way past my prime.

 

Once a pit bull

 

Now just

 

A dachshund.

 

 

Back then I used to wail

 

Just like the Alpha Male.

 

Now I count myself lucky,

 

If she lets me exhale.

 

Cause I’m caught in her…

 

 

CHORUS 3

 

Razor wire.

 

That’s right I’m caught by

 

Razor wire.

 

Yeah it looks nice and shiny,

 

The edges sharp, tips are spiny.

 

Ain’t no way I’m getting out of

 

Razor wire.

 

 

The End.
