GIRLS ALOUD | Control Of The Knife

LYRICS:

Won't climb underground, battle lounge
Won't crawl through the dirt, you're cruel
That's what you found, body sound
I'm turning it round, I'm cool

You hooked me line and sinker, I fell
Ooh you'd like the heavens in hell
You took me high and blinkered I fell
Ooh you'd like the kiss and the tell

You're keeping control of the knife
But I'm not your darling
It's keeping me cold in the nights
But honey you're starving

Got sweet hassle, sweet talking me
Got cheap babble, cheap talking free

You hooked me line and sinker, I fell
Ooh you'd like the heavens in hell
You took me high and blinkered I fell
Ooh you'd like the kiss and the tell

You're keeping control of the knife
But I'm not your darling
It's keeping me cold in the nights
But honey you're starving

Got sweet hassle, sweet talking me
Got cheap babble, cheap talking free

REVIEWS:
 x As Ska tracks go, Control of the Knife is far better then the slew of recent artists we've seen experimenting with it, purely on the basis that GA are singing as opposed to talking through some mockney accent (Kate Nash, Lily Allen). RWD

x Control Of The Knife, which seems to have started before it begins (got that?), has a fantastic horn solo at 1:16 that lifts the song into the stratosphere, as do the vocodered vocals that follow. xolondon
