Nick Cave amp The Badseeds - Wings Off Flies Lyrics




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

Wings Off Flies

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





She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me not

We-e-ll, ah've spent seven days and seven nights

tryin to get sunk in this brine

Don't turn on ya water-works

'cause ah got me a pair of water-wings, right?!





Insects suicide against the window,

and my heart goes out to those lil flies

There's a buzzin in my ear

but it's more of her black-mail, ham shakespeare + lies

Wings off Flies, She loves me, she loves me not.

O o o o oh she loves me not!!





Lord, Ah've discovered the recipe of Heaven

ya git solitude and ya mix with sanctuary and silence,

then bake it!

Listen, I plead guilty to misanthropy

so hang me! Ah'd appreciate it!!

Witness her gate-crash my tiny hell

with some obscene tte-?tte,

If ya wanna talk to me about Love'n'Pain

consult my ulcer, it'd be happy to co-operate

Wings off Flies, she loves me, loves me not

Uh hey, Joe! Another outa do the job.





Time to drown our lil fire, ya can keep the ashes,

Now bye bye, bye, bye, see ya in a pigs eye!

Ah will be one, in need of no-one

In this, my deepest dive...

Fill'er up, Joe...





Hey! Ah am obliged! Ah am olbiged!

Wings off Flies, She loves me, she loves me not

Wings off Flies etc... ad infinitum





Welcome the solitary flyer ya

see it land on the rim of my glass

it's going around and around and around

look I just don't have the heart to hurt a fly

I grabbed it in my paw

snatched it up

and then I held it to my ear could hear it scream

could hear it scream and scream and scream

till it screamed not...

Hey Joe, ya know anything about this scream?
