Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Deep In The Woods Lyrics
The woods eats the woman and dumps her honey-body in the mudHer dress floats down the well and it assumes the shape of the body of a little girlYeah I recognize that girlShe stumbled in some time last lonelinessBut I could not stand to touch her nowMy one and onlyness.Deep in the woodsDeep in the woodsDeep in the woods a funeral is swinging.Worms make their cruel designSaying d-i-e into her skinSaying dead into belly and death into shoulderWell last night she kissed me but than death was upon her.Deep in the woodsDeep in the woodsDeep in the woods a funeral is swinging.Now the killed waits for the killerAnd the trees all nod their heads, they are agreedThis knife feels like a knife feels like a knife that feels like its feed.Yeah I recognize that girlI took her from rags right through to stitches (pray for me now)Oh baby, tonight we sleep in separate ditches.Deep in the woodsDeep in the woodsDeep in the woods a funeral is swinging.Love is for fools and all fools are loversIts raining on my house and none of the othersLove is for fools and God knows Im still oneThe sidewalks are filled with loves lonely childrenThe sidewalk regrets that we had to kill them.
