Lyrics
Ooh, I didn't talk too much, in fact not at all
Not speaking much, if at all.
But to ask for the price, I was to be no fool
Being cautious in negotiating a price, not wanting to be taken advantage of.
Money's no time to waste or to shoot up the wall
Money shouldn't be wasted or used for destructive purposes.
You got the know-how, the place, teacher take me to your school
Wanting to learn from someone knowledgeable in a certain place or situation.
She lead the way from the alley back to her house
Being led from a dangerous or risky area to a safer place.
Must not be seen going in, must not be seen coming out
Emphasizing the need for secrecy or discretion in entering and leaving.
She said I look mighty but thin, she told me
Being complimented but also pointed out as thin.
"I'm gonna give you a second helping"
A promise to provide more, perhaps food or something beneficial.
Ooh, Razor Blade Alley I've been there
Having been to a dangerous or risky place called Razor Blade Alley.
Razor Blade Alley neither of us cared
Both parties not caring about the risks of being in Razor Blade Alley.
It was the prime time but the wrong place
Being at the right time but in the wrong place, an unfortunate situation.
It was my first time I hope, my last taste
Expressing a hope that the experience was the first and last of its kind.
I'm just too shy to check in
Feeling too timid or nervous to face a situation directly.
But this pain of pissing razors is cutting in, ow
Experiencing intense pain, likened to urinating razor blades.
Hmm, felt like a knight without shining armor on
Feeling vulnerable and unprotected.
At the time she thought she was in a dream
Thinking she was in an unreal or dreamlike state.
Floating up on cloud nine now I awake
Feeling euphoric but suddenly becoming aware of reality.
She is nowhere, but the razor cuts deeper everywhere, ow
Despite her absence, the pain and consequences are deeply felt.
