Yorktown Lyrics


Butcher Babies Yorktown

[Verse 1]
Can you see the light shine on my boots
Bullwhip on my hip and I've been looking for you
The night is young and I'm wanting to play
Let's start up a game in the alley way

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Yeah, I've got nine lives
I'm a terror by night
Can you hear my cat call against every night fall
It's the click
The clack
The crack of the whip
I'm a feral switchblade and I'll never miss

[Chorus]
You know I'm not one to fake it
Yeah, I've already made it
When the clock strikes 12, yeah, you'll see the real me
We only come out at night

[Post-Chorus]
2 3 4 5, we've got nine livеs, count 'em
6 6 6 7, all bad girls go to heaven
2 3 4 5, wе've got nine lives, count 'em
6 6 6 7, all bad girls go to heaven
[Verse 2]
A trail of feathers and blood on the street
Black cat on the prowl and I'm ready to leap
I sway my hips like a hungry little stray
Come and watch me pounce on my next prey

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah, I've got nine lives
I'm a siren by night
Can you hear my cat call against every night fall
It's the bang bang bang (bang bang bang)
I'm a feral switchblade and I'll never miss

[Chorus]
You know I'm not one to fake it
Yeah, I've already made it
When the clock strikes 12, yeah, you'll see the real me
We only come out at night

[Post-Chorus]
2 3 4 5, we've got nine lives, count 'em
6 6 6 7, all bad girls go to heaven
2 3 4 5, we've got nine lives, count 'em
6 6 6 7, all bad girls go to heaven

[Bridge 1]
Pussy cat, pussy cat
Where have you been?
I've been up to London to look at the queen
Pussy cat, pussy cat
What did you there?
I frightened a little mouse under her chair
[Bridge 2]
After a day in disguise I'm ready for a fight
My mortal enemy is waiting for me
Kill me once, you better kill me twice
I'm not afraid bitch, I've got nine lives

[Chorus]
You know I'm not one to fake it
Yeah, I've already made it
When the clock strikes 12, yeah, you'll see the real me
We only come out at night

[Post-Chorus]
2 3 4 5, we've got nine lives, count 'em
6 6 6 7, all bad girls go to heaven
2 3 4 5, we've got nine lives, count 'em
6 6 6 7, all bad girls go to heaven
