Man on a String
Giant Sand

Nothing but a cold floor

Under my feet

Outside

the rain turns to sleet

Nothing but a ghost

knocking on my door

All because you don't send me love

Anymore

Send me no more love

It would only stand to make me sick

Send me love no more

I'd only get back in what I got out way too quick

I knew a man

who would like to talk a good game

Words sweet as syrup pour out of him like rain

One fateless night, fooling around downtown

When that girl came in you cold hear the sap hit the ground

Now I know a girl with a man on a string

She loves to see how much he can take

With a come on and a little heartache

She swore she didn't need any more

Than all she could take

Nothing but a cold floor

under my feet

Outside the wind blows bitterly

Nothing but a ghost knocking on my door

All because you don't send me love

Anymore

Now I know a man

with a girl on a string

He likes to see how much she can take

With a come on and a little heartbreak

She swore she didn't need any more

Than all she could take
