Midnight Man

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

2008

hold that chrysalis in yr palm
see it split & change
it won’t do you any harm
it’s just trying to rearrange
it was born to live a day
now it flies up from yr h&
(it’s beautiful)
it’s the one they call
yr ever-loving man
wolves have carried yr babies away
o yr kids drip from their teeth
the nights are long & the day
is bitter cold beyond belief
you spread yourself like a penitent
upon the mad vibrating s&
& through yr teeth
arrange to meet
yr midnight man
everybody’s coming round to my place!!!
everybody’s coming round to my place!!!
everybody’s coming round!!!
o baby don’t y/ see
everybody wants to be
yr midnight man!!!!!
don’t disturb me as I sleep
treat me gentle when I wake
don’t disturb me as I sleep
even though yr body aches
even though yr body aches
to serve at his comm&
betwn the wars
she still adores
her ever-loving man
close yr eyes, sleep in him
dream of yr lost sons & daughters
me, I’ll raise up the dorsal fin
& glide up & down the waters
I’ll glide up & down the waters
then I’ll walk upon the l&
& call em out
the ones who doubt
yr midnight man
everybody’s coming round to my place!!!
everybody’s coming round to my place!!!
everybody’s coming round!!!
o darling don’t y/ see
everybody wants to be
yr midnight man!!!!!
it’s early in the morning
& I don’t know what to do
it’s early in the morning
& I can’t believe it’s true
it’s early in the morning
& it’s happening again
I called y/ once
I called y/ twice
ain’t I yr midnight man
everybody’s coming round to my place!!!
everybody’s coming round to my place!!!
everybody’s coming round!!!
they want y/
they love y/
they need to be
yr midnight man!!!
everybody’s coming round
everybody’s coming round
everybody’s coming round
everybody’s coming round
to be yr midnight man!!!
to be yr midnight man!!!
