Flesh Wound Robert Palmer

We flew over miles of ocean--be prepared
I don't have the faintest notion who'll be there
You underestimated; nobody sympathized
I think you'll soon feel better once we get inside
I see the door is open -- Why don't we walk right in?
Let's put our party hats on and let the fun begin!
We should have called and said that we were on our way;
Who would have ever guessed that you'd be so unreachable?
Just another flesh wound--another thorn in my side
Just another flesh wound--another wonder-cure that you tried
Just another flesh wound--another scratch on your hide
Just another flesh wound--another irritation you abide
You know the rumour's going that he was synthesized
And if we had to dress, I wouldn't be surprised
I say -- you're so outrageous -- you'll go to number one!
They'll have us both arrested for having too much fun
Just another flesh wound--another scratch on your hide
Just another flesh wound--another thorn in your side
Just another flesh wound--another bruise on your pride
Just another flesh wound--another paranoia that you hide
And when she held her nose, she took an underdose
It was nice to see her completely comatose
You go first, you're completely debonair;
Let's go dutch -- it's only fair
Just another flesh wound--another scratch on your hide
Just another flesh wound--another thorn in your side
Just another flesh wound--another bruise on your pride
Just another flesh wound--another paranoia that you hide
The other ladies told him that he was hypnotized
Nobody was controlling, the drummer's paralyzed
And when the rope was tested, it didn't come undone
And when his bone's were rested, he took another one
Just another flesh wound--another thorn in your side
Just another flesh wound--a minor injury you dignified
Just another flesh wound--another unsuccessful suicide
Just another flesh wound--another curse that you ride
Just another flesh wound
Just another flesh wound
Just another flesh wound
