Jawbreaker Lyrics


Deadly as the viper

peering from its coil.

The poison there is

coming to the boil.

Ticking like a time bomb,

the fuse is running short.

On the verge of snapping

if it's caught.

And all the pressure that's been building up,

for all the years it bore the load.

The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort

it is ready to explode.

Jawbreaker!

Crouching in the corner,

wound up as a spring.

Piercing eyes that flash

are shimmering.

Muscles are all contorted,

claws dug in the dirt.

Every ounce of fiber on alert!

And all the pressure that's been building up,

for all the years it bore the load.

The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort

it is ready to explode.

Jawbreaker!
