Lyrics

I'm biting the blade of your scissors

I'm enduring the pain or difficulty symbolized by biting the blade of your scissors.

(As the champagne fizzes)

(As the champagne fizzes) - This may indicate a celebratory or intoxicating atmosphere.

Keep it on ice

Keep it on ice - Preserve or maintain a state of readiness or anticipation.

There's plenty more biting to do yet

There's more challenges or struggles to face, likened to biting.

There's plenty more biting to do yet

Reiteration of the anticipation of more challenges or struggles.


Words dribble from my mouth

Words are spoken but fail to reach their intended audience.

But don't even reach your lungs

Despite speaking, communication is ineffective and doesn't reach you.

So have little hope in penetrating (penetrating)

Little hope in making an impact or being understood (penetrating).

Your fucking noodley tangle

Expressing frustration or difficulty in dealing with a complex or confusing situation ("noodley tangle").

Your fucking noodley tangle

Reiteration of the frustration or difficulty in dealing with a complex situation.


I'm biting the blade of your scissors

Repetition of the initial imagery, suggesting ongoing endurance of difficulty.

(As the champagne fizzes)

Reiteration of the celebratory or intoxicating atmosphere with the mention of champagne.

Keep it on ice

Encouragement to maintain a state of readiness or anticipation (keep it on ice).

There's plenty more biting to do yet

Confirmation that more challenges or struggles are expected, similar to the biting imagery.


Words dribble from my mouth

Repetition of the theme of ineffective communication, with words not reaching their intended destination.

They don't even reach your lungs

Continuation of the theme that spoken words fail to reach the intended audience's lungs, emphasizing the lack of impact.

So have little hope in penetrating

Reiteration of the little hope in making an impact or being understood (penetrating).

Your fucking noodley tangle

Final expression of frustration or difficulty in dealing with a complex or confusing situation ("noodley tangle").
