Night Of The Lotus Eaters

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

2008

sapped & stupid
I lie upon the stones and I swoons
the darling little dandelions have done their thing
& changed from suns into moons
the dragons roam the shopping malls
I hear theyre gonna eat our guts
if I had the strength I might pick up my sword
& make some attempt to resist
get ready to shield yourself!!!!!!!!!
grab yr sap & yr heaters
get ready to shield yourself!!!!!!!!!
on the night of the lotus eaters
mmmmmmmm don’t you love my baby
mmmmmmmm & don’t you love my baby anymore
they gilded my scales/ they fish-bowled me
& they toured me round the old aquariums
they come in their hordes to tap at the glass
the philistines and barbarians
I like
floating
here (it’s nice)
theyve hung seaweed round my hips
& I do the
<<hula>>
for the hungry ones
& the lames all throw me tips
get ready to shield yourself!!!!!!!!!
grab yr sap & yr heaters
get ready to shield yourself!!!!!!!!!
on the night of the lotus eaters
mmmmmmmm don’t you love my baby
mmmmmmmm & don’t you love my baby anymore
get ready to shield yourself!!!!!!!!!
from our catastrophic leaders
get ready to shield yourself!!!!!!!!!
grab yr sap & yr heaters
on the night of the lotus eaters
now hit the streets!!!!!!!
Now
HIT
the
streets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
