Lyrics

[Verse 1]

So go on

And I will refrain

And I'll keep on running

This never ending race

And maybe next time

Will be the right time

And maybe next time

Will be your time

[Chorus]

So save your scissors

For someone else's skin

My surface is so tough

I don't think the blade will dig in

Save your strength

Save your wasted time

There's no way that I want you to be

Left behind

[Chorus]

Go on and save your scissors

Save your scissors

[Verse 2]

So why

Does it always seem

That every time I turn around

Somebody falls in love with me?

This has never been

My sole intention

And I have never claimed

To have patents on such inventions

[Chorus]

Just save your scissors

For someone else's skin

My surface is so tough

I don't think the blade will dig in

Save your strength

Save your wasted time

There's no way that I want you to be

Left behind

Go on and save your scissors

Save your scissors

[Bridge]

But there is something

That I must confess to you tonight

To you tonight

And that is I expect

Nothing less

From you tonight

From you tonight

[Outro]

Go on and save your scissors

Save your scissors

Save your scissors
