Nick Cave - Christina The Astonishing Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Christina the astonishing
  • Lived a long time ago
  • She was stricken with a seizure
  • At the age of twenty-two
  • They took her body in a coffin
  • To a tiny church in liege
  • Where she sprang up from the coffin
  • Just after the agnus dei
  • She soared up to the rafters
  • Perched on a beam up there
  • Cried the stink of human sin
  • Is more that I can bear
  • Christina the astonishing
  • Was the most astonishing of all
  • She prayed balanced on a hurdle
  • Or curled up into a ball
  • She fled to remote places
  • Climbed towers and trees and walls
  • To escape the stench of human corruption
  • Into an oven she did crawl
  • O christina the astonishing
  • Behaved in a terrifying way
  • She would run wildly through the streets
  • Jump in the meusse and swim away
  • O christina the astonishing
  • Behaved in terrifying manner
  • Died at the age of seventy-four
  • In the convent of st anna
