PART I: BLOODSHOT DEMONS
When the streets shoot fire with a thunderbolt roll
And the bloodshot demons run free
That’s when I see her again within the pit of my heart
Staring out of the past into me
We stood there together on the edge of forever
In the shadows of a pale moonlight
And I’d never seen a woman looking better than she did
On that lonely deep dark hot summer night
Well, my body was trembling and my soul was aching
But I saw my salvation in her eyes
So I held out my hand and said those three little words
That I’d been holding for so long inside
Pull my finger
Pull my finger
I’m begging you, please, why don’t you
Pull my finger?
Pull my finger
Pull my finger
I’m down on my knees, why don’t you
Pull my finger?
Maybe I don’t know what I’m asking you for
And maybe I know it ain’t right
Won’t you pull my finger, baby
’Til the morning light
PART II: GOTTA GET OUT
I said “I gotta get out, I gotta get outta here
Again, I gotta get goin’ away
If you’re never gonna give me the answer that I need
I ain’t waiting till the end of the day”
So I got on my bike and headed out on the road
At a hundred million miles an hour
And I drove all night, and then the road opened up
Into a raging pit of burning fire
And as my bike went down through the gates of Hell
I thought about a hockey game…
PART III: A HOCKEY GAME
ANNOUNCER:
…Duchesne brings the puck up towards the center line, looks for the open man, passes over to Hunter who takes a shot from the point, wide left…the puck bounces into the crease, Broslowski and Marsh duking it out for control, Marsh wins control, passes it up to Krieger, Krieger sends it to the blue line for Steeples, pass intercepted by Kaneth, and, oh! A crushing check from Carrizzo sends Kaneth into the boards…Steeples comes up with the puck, it’s a 2 on 1, he jukes and now only the goalie stands between him and the net! Steeples charging, Hextall comes out to meet him, it’s the moment of truth! He dekes, Hextall hits the ice, and it looks like he has an empty net! Holy Cow…
PART IV: THE BIG ENDING
HER:
I’ll never pull your finger
No way I’m gonna pull your finger
I’m never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever gonna pull it
| HIM: Pull my finger Pull my finger You know that I need for you to Pull my finger |
HER: Put it away Please don’t ask me again I’m tired of your childish games |
I’m prayin’ to God I‘m goin’ outta my mind I don’t know what to do Why don’t you pull my finger? |
I don’t know where it’s been Ask me anything else But darlin’, don’t ask me to do that |
| Don’t you know what it means to me, baby? I’ll do anything you want if you just pull my finger |
How many times do I have to tell you? I don’t care if it hurts you |
| I’m reaching out Why don’t you take my hand? Tell me what I gotta do to make you Pull my finger |
Let the heavens rain down Let the mountains fall But I’m never gonna Pull your finger |
|
BOTH: Now… |
