Intro
RIFF 1 X 4
Verse 1
Riff 1
Sugar town has turned so sour
its people angry in their sleep
There's more small-town paranoia
Sweeping down its evil sheets
Chorus
You better give me the chance
I'll cut you down with a glance
Yeh, with my small axe - so help me,
And tho' I'm only one
And tho' weak I'm strong
And if it comes to the crunch
Then I'm the woodcutter's son
Riff 1
And I'm cutting down the wood for the good of everyone!
Verse 2
Riff 1
You can tell it's witching hour
You can feel the spirits rise
When the room goes very quiet
And there's hatred in their eyes -
Chorus
You better give me the chance
I'll cut you down with a glance
Yeh, with my small axe - so help me,
And tho' I'm only one
And tho' weak I'm strong
And if it comes to the crunchThen I'm the woodcutter's son
Riff 1
And I'm cutting down the wood for the good of everyone!

Verse 3
Riff 1
There's a silence when I enter
And a murmur when I leave
I can see their jealous faces
I can feel the ice they breathe
Chorus
You better give me the chance
I'll cut you down with a glance
Yeh, with my small axe - so help me,
And tho' I'm only one
And tho' weak I'm strong
And if it comes to the crunch
Then I'm the woodcutter's son
Riff 1
And I'm cutting down the wood for the good of everyone!
