The Whip Hand Songtext
Here she comes
She wears a bicycle pattern on her school skirt
Of claret, black and grey

Taking turns
Which one to piss right off? Which one to give hope to?
In the mustard heat of day

Holding the whip hand forever
Gripping her ankles under the overpass
I thought it couldn't last

'Cos everybody knew she held the will
And everybody knew she held the whip hand
Too brazen to miss
The whip hand, the stick and the kiss

Rubber gloves
Flung down, now what's gone wrong? What's the wagon done now
That she hasn't done before?

Nothing much
This is a routine call, keep an eye upon her
That's all, and you won't hear from me anymore

Holding the whip hand forever
Gripping her ankles under the overpass
I thought it couldn't last

'Cos everybody knew she held the will
And everybody knew she held the whip hand
Too brazen to miss
The whip hand, the stick and the kiss

'Cos everybody knew she held the will
And everybody knew she held the whip hand
And all of the evidence shows

She held the whip hand, woah-oh
She held the whip hand, woah-oh
etc, etc.
