Lyrics

I have eyes for you to give you dirty looks,

I have eyes for you to give you disapproving or scornful looks.

I have words that do not come from children's books,

I have words that are not suitable for children's books, possibly implying strong language.

There's a trick with a knife I'm learnin' to do,

There's a trick with a knife that I'm learning, suggesting a potentially dangerous skill.

But everything I've got belongs to you!

Despite the previous lines, everything I possess belongs to you, expressing a sense of devotion.


I've a powerful anesthesia in my fist

I have a powerful ability to numb or sedate, possibly metaphorical, in my fist.

And the perfect wrist to give your neck a twist!

I have the skill to give your neck a twist, possibly metaphorical or emphasizing control.

Hammer lock holds, I've mastered a few,

I've mastered various wrestling holds, suggesting physical prowess.

But everything I've got belongs to you!

Despite the potential threat, everything I possess is dedicated to you.


Share for share, share alike,

Emphasizing reciprocity, implying consequences for actions.

You get struck each time I strike!

Any harm I cause will be reciprocated.

Me for you, you for me,

Mutual exchange – me for you, you for me.

I'll give youy plenty of nothin'!

Expressing a willingness to give a substantial amount of nothing, possibly in a playful or teasing manner.


I'm not yours for better, but for worse,

Commitment in both good and challenging times.

And I've learned to give the well-known witch's curse!

Referring to the ability to cast a harmful spell, possibly metaphorical.

I've a terrible tongue and a temper for two,

Admitting to having a sharp tongue and a temper, acknowledging flaws.

But everything I've got belongs to you!

Despite the flaws, everything I possess is dedicated to you.


Then at night we'll sleep and sleep,

Describing a peaceful and intimate night of sleep together.

Sleep and sleep and sleep and sleep,

Reiteration of the willingness to provide a substantial amount of nothing during sleep.

And sleep and sleep,

-

I'll give you plenty of nothin'!

-

I'm not yours for better, but for worse,

Repetition of commitment in both good and challenging times.

And I've learned to give the well-known witch's curse!

Reiteration of the ability to cast a harmful spell.

I've a terrible tongue and a temper for two,

Reiteration of having a sharp tongue and a temper.

But everything I've got,

Despite any shortcomings, everything I possess is dedicated to you.

Oooh-ooh it's not a lot!

Acknowledgment that what I have may not be much, but it's all dedicated to you.

But everything I've got belongs to you!

Reaffirmation that everything I possess belongs to you.
