Nick Cave - West Country Girl Lyrics
With a crooked smile and a heart-shaped faceComes from the west country where the birds sing bassShes got a house-big heart where we all liveAnd plead and council and forgiveHer widows peak, her lips Ive kissedHer glove of bones at her wristThat I have held in my handHer spanish fly and her monkey glandHer godly body and its fourteen stationsThat I have embraced, her palpitationsHer unborn baby crying, mummyAmongst the rubble of her bodyHer lovely lidded eyes Ive sippedHer fingernails, all pink and chippedHer accent which Im told is broadThat I have heard and has been pouredInto my human heart and filled meAnd rebuilt me back anewWith something to look forward toWell, who could ask much more than that?A west country girl with a big fat catThat looks into her eyes of greenAnd meows, he loves you, then meows again
