Tooth and Claw

You brought my soul back through the cat flap
Spread it on the kitchen floor
That always was your nature
Red in tooth and claw

Bad assed and bitching
Getting into heated kitchens
Knives out and flashing
Red blood splashing

You brought my soul back through the cat flap
Spread it on the kitchen floor
That always was your nature
Red in tooth and claw

Heading for a total rout
Set up and burnt out
Used up and forgotten
Hitting the rock bottom

You brought my soul back through the cat flap
Spread it on the kitchen floor
That always was your nature
Red in tooth and claw

‘Til next time you decide
To defile and deride
Then I am certain
You will press my button

(Sometimes I get fed up with love songs)

I'm no good at giving critique, but I'm fair at commenting and I liked this personally. I though it deserved some positive feedback as it is really a good set of lyrics.

Olly, I know even less about lyrics but you really hooked me with " You brought my soul back through the cat flap". That's just such an usual way of looking at things.

Really liked this verse, too:
" Heading for a total rout
Set up and burnt out
Used up and forgotten
Hitting the rock bottom"

I really like how you use words sometimes.

Thank you, both of you.
