Work the Saw

Don’t you be surprised
If I come and take you away
That is a safe place to be

I’m a tall clock
Wednesdays, Thursdays
Wind it up
Surely that’s how no one else would be

Don’t you be surprised
If I come and show you my face
You will know you’ve been talking to me, too

Don’t you be surprised
If I realized I did okay
The only one that works the lock is you

Down this backwards path
Pat me down before I become
A thin, evil beastie, too

Taste my fondest tears
If I come to comfort again
Thinking we could work the saw

I’d be the last to know
If I figured out how I feel for you
