Another Song About Nick Cave
There was Nick Cave
Dancing his way out
Of the Kitkatclub
With a smile on his face
He had just put back his shirt on
Seems to have lost his black jacket
He got a hole in his pants
One last condom in his back pocket
Started crossing the street
Without looking on his left
He got almost knocked over
By a tall blond girl on a bike
She fell on the ground
By the end of the street
Nick ran to her and asked
If she was ok
She lit a cigarette
And took a drag
"Are you alright?"
He asked again
"Yeah, I'm just
Fucking wasted"
He dragged her to
The side of the street
Where the sleepless walkers
Sell their skin for a dollar
"What's with the eyes
On the back of your head?", she said
"What's with the eyes
On the back of your head?"
Does getting old mean looking back
Does the red light burn
Until you can find a bed
Nick fell on his knees and
Crawled into her arms
Nick fell on his knees
As Anton walked past the red light district
Carrying in a sixties case
A ten thousand dollar guitar
He saw... well he saw a man
Crying on his knees
He saw a man
Crying on his knees
Dancing his way out
Of the Kitkatclub
With a smile on his face
He had just put back his shirt on
Seems to have lost his black jacket
He got a hole in his pants
One last condom in his back pocket
Started crossing the street
Without looking on his left
He got almost knocked over
By a tall blond girl on a bike
She fell on the ground
By the end of the street
Nick ran to her and asked
If she was ok
She lit a cigarette
And took a drag
"Are you alright?"
He asked again
"Yeah, I'm just
Fucking wasted"
He dragged her to
The side of the street
Where the sleepless walkers
Sell their skin for a dollar
"What's with the eyes
On the back of your head?", she said
"What's with the eyes
On the back of your head?"
Does getting old mean looking back
Does the red light burn
Until you can find a bed
Nick fell on his knees and
Crawled into her arms
Nick fell on his knees
As Anton walked past the red light district
Carrying in a sixties case
A ten thousand dollar guitar
He saw... well he saw a man
Crying on his knees
He saw a man
Crying on his knees
