# i've been stabbed everywhere **verse 1** got stabbed in the forehead that was a thousand credits gone three months late on rent just to keep my face screwed on got stabbed through the left eye two grand i couldn't spare sold my guitar sold my jacket sold my mother's rocking chair --- **chorus** i've been stabbed everywhere and every scar has got a price every stitch and every prosthetic came with interest overnight i've been stabbed everywhere from my forehead to my feet and the knife wounds heal much quicker than the bills they leave on me --- **verse 2** got stabbed through the shoulder one thousand more to pay picked up extra shifts at mosscroft just to keep the wolves away got stabbed through the upper arm fifteen hundred down the drain the doctor fixed the muscle but he couldn't fix the pain --- **verse 3** got stabbed through the chest once that cost me four thousand flat the ambulance was eight hundred just for showing up at that got stabbed in the abdomen twenty-five hundred more the surgeon saved my life then handed me the score --- **chorus** i've been stabbed everywhere and every scar has got a price every stitch and every prosthetic came with interest overnight i've been stabbed everywhere from my forehead to my feet and the knife wounds heal much quicker than the bills they leave on me --- **verse 4** got stabbed in the groin three thousand credits gone the nurse said "you're lucky" i said "luck's been gone too long" got stabbed through both knees fifteen hundred each now every staircase in the city feels just out of reach --- **bridge** hundred for a finger six hundred for a foot twelve hundred for a shinbone the prices all got put on a payment plan so generous i'll still be paying when i'm dead the city's got a way of making profit from your blood instead --- **verse 5** six grand for my spine when that one finally went the operation worked perfectly except for all the debt the knife was free the stabbing free the bleeding free as well it's only getting patched back up that costs a little hell --- **final chorus** i've been stabbed everywhere and every scar has got a price every piece they glued back on got financed twice i've been stabbed everywhere and i'm still walking around because in the city of y being alive is mostly debt that hasn't been collected yet --- **outro** the knife went in for free the knife came out for free but everything in between belongs to the bank
