Imogen Heap
Rake It In (Live) [iTunes Festival: London 2007]
[Intro]
"This is 'Rake It In' and this is me being very very angry with my record company. Here it is. So in the middle I kind of go a bit mental. It's all part of the act, so don't come on here with a stretcher and take me away. It's all part of the play. Okay."
[Verse 1]
I am here again
Tied up in your torture frame
Printed paper is guilty to blame
The story stays the same
[Chorus]
Dry me out, run me down, burn me out
And rake it in, rake it in, yeah
Dry me out, run me down, burn me up
And rake it in, rake it in
Rake it in, yeah you rake it in
[Verse 2]
A slave upon your plate
I am your dreams, yeah your life and your bait
Selfish schemes, I proceed and you await
You are my indefinite hate
[Chorus]
Dry me out, run me down, burn me up
And rake it in, rake it in, yeah
Dry me out, run me down, burn me ip
And rake it in, rake it in
Rake it in, yeah you rake it in some more
[Bridge]
Do you know what my chopping block's for?
Do you know what my razor blade's for?
Do you know what my hanging braid's for?
Do you know what I, what I have in store for you?
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Dry me out, run me down, burn me out
Rake it in, rake it in
Rake it in, rake it in
Yeah, you rake it in
[Chorus]
Dry me down, run me up, burn me up
And rake it in
Dry me down, run me up, burn me up
And rake it in, rake it in
[Outro]
Rake it in some more
Rake it in some more
