A Kick In the Teeth - Anthony D'Amato

Written by：Anthony D'Amato

When the night's begun

Way before the sun has set

And the rain is gone but the river's yet to crest

When the shaking stopped

Only aftershocks remain

And the crowd applauds

As the firing squad takes aim

That's when I wonder what I'm waiting for

An invitation or an open door

A revelation on an ancient scroll

Or just maybe a kick in the teeth

When the sharpest blades in your shoulder

Babe I suppose you're bound to cut

Anybody you pull close

When your heart attacks

And the thin ice cracks below

Oh you hold your breath

Just one more step to go

That's when I wonder what I'm waiting for

An invitation or an open door

A revelation on an ancient scroll

Or just maybe a kick in the teeth
