about

Cootes Paradise original, vocals by Wayne Krawchuk, performed by Cootes Paradise.

lyrics

I got something to get off my chest
We broke bread together, but never again

You really played me, held me in your grip
Now your claws are out, but you ain’t draggin’ me in

No I ain’t your, no I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No I ain’t your, no I ain’t your, oooh
I Ain’t Your Scratchin’ Post

Elegance has been your pretense
I’m tired of your games, and I’m jumpin’ off this fence

You like to criticize to justify your hate
Your crocodile smile, I ain’t taken your bait

No I ain’t your, no I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No I ain’t your, no I ain’t your, No I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No no no

I stand invisible, here in the light of day
Your soulless confession, coiled like a rattlesnake

I reclaim my spirit, it’s was never yours to take
Hey, hey, look now, I’m outta your reach, checkmate.

And I ain’t your, no I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No I ain’t your, no I ain’t your, No
I ain’t your scratchin’ post

No no no
Ain’t your scratchin’ post, no
No, I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No, no, I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No no
No, I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No, I ain’t your scratchin’ post
No
