how to walk with sissors

you asked me how to walk with scissors
I said my dear,
that's so bizarre
that's like asking how to get to Georgia
without using planes or cars,

a better man 
than myself
would've told you
darling
if you wanted to learn how to walk with scissors
you're better off crawling

you hold them by the blade my love
just like you did to me
you tell me that you love me babe
but I cant stand to watch you leave

I'll watch you walk out that house
I cant tell fact from myth 
I begged you just to stay a while
then you walked out,
with the scissors you stabbed me with

now I told you how to walk with scissors,
how could you do that to me?
now I know to hold on tight
because the scissors belong to me
