Nick Cave amp The Badseeds - Green Eyes Lyrics

*****************

Green Eyes

*****************





Kiss me again, rekiss me and kiss me

Slip your frigid hands beneath my shirt

This useless old f*cker with his twinkling c*nt

Doesn't care if he gets hurt





Green eyes, Green eyes

Green eyes, Green eyes





If it were but a matter of faith

If it were measured in petitions and prayer

She would materialise, all fleshed out

But it is not, nor do I care





Green eyes, Green eyes

Green eyes, Green eyes





So hold me and hold me, don't tell me your name

This morning will be wiser than this evening is

Then leave me to my enemied dreams

And be quiet as you are leaving, Miss





Green eyes...

Green eyes, Green eyes

Green eyes, Green eyes

Green eyes, Green eyes
