The Lyrics
Doesn't it annoy you when every stranger asks the same unoriginal question?
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
A "9" is stamped upon my cloud
No matter if I'm in or out
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Some people gasp, some people cry
When they see me, I don't know why
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Because I don't dress too bad, whoa-oh
I made sure my pants are pulled up, so
Must be this wound now (dudes hate gore)
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
People askin' me to explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Please stop buggin' me to explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (whoo!)
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
No "ow"'s will escape me, friend
Though I took this knife's bus'ness end
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Think it was approximately
Three years ago, four, possibly
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Since my poor kidney got stabbed, whoa-oh
I've gotten pretty used to it, though
Please don't touch it now (hehe)
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Please stop askin' me to explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Sick of it, don't need to explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Might look apallin' the way it sticks so
There's no leaks from this hole (hole)
And most of it is inside
It hasn't pierced my back, right
Handle's a great key pole (key pole)
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Seven days a week, I explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Strangers beggin' me to explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (have they never seen, never, ever seen someone shanked? Good grief)
Won't explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
One more time to any schmuck who thinks I'll get mugged now
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Puts 'em off, you see, to explain this sharp knife (hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife
A "9" is stamped upon my cloud
No matter if I'm in or out
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Some people gasp, some people cry
When they see me, I don't know why
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Because I don't dress too bad, whoa-oh
I made sure my pants are pulled up, so
Must be this wound now (dudes hate gore)
Hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife

Sharp kni-i-i-i-i-i-i-ife

How did it get there, you may ask? Truly, that is a riddle for the ages...
