Lyrics

One rainy day in July
I stabbed you in your lumberjack thigh
When I felt upon me your wild hands

I was chopping the forest of your hair
With my new barbershop shears

You never know, do ya?

That man standing by the brill cream
With his jaw dropped in utter disbelief
Is the reason I travelled so far

There once was a woman on a boat
Mustered all her strength to leave her home
8000 kilometres from Kyoto to Victoria

You never know, do ya?

Your blazing eyes locked on mine
And I braced my knees and steeled my spine
While the waiting room erupted into cheers
He's been asking for that for years

You pried the scissors from your leg
Ripped my apron up and tied a tourniquet
With a heavy lean you lumbered to the till
And without a word you paid your bill

You never know, do ya?
