lyrics

I know this man, he’s got a service to sell
drivin’ in his van and ringin’ his bell
it’s not the ice cream man this time, but
he’ll sharpen all of your knives for a dime

I’ve seen that sinister look on his face
as he’s drivin’ at a steady slow pace
he’s got a hidden agenda, I know
come to think of it, where’d all of my kids go

What ever happened to my Jacob and Seth?
Just found out he stabbed those poor kids to death
I can’t complain, his prices sure are a deal, but
Why’d he have to grind their faces on his sharpening wheel

I know those kids can be pretty damn insane
but I won’t be caught dead munchin’ on their brains
No, no, you’re one sick fuck, Mr. Sharpening Man
with blood and brains and bones all over your van

I know his business must be slow, his life so dull
I’d rather see my son again than just some blood and
fragments of his skull oozing away down a sewer
in this once quaint suburb, and trickling down the curb

What ever happened to my Jacob and Seth?
Just found out he stabbed those poor kids to death
I can’t complain, his prices sure are a deal, but
Why’d he have to grind their faces on his sharpening wheel
