Текст песни Nick Cave - Papa Wont Leave You Henry
I went out walking the other dayThe wind hung wet around my neckMy head it rung with screams and groansFrom the night I spent amongst her bonesI past beside the mission houseWhere that mad old buzzard, the reverend,Shrieked and flapped about life after your dead( )Well, I thought about my friend, MichelHow they rolled him in linoleumAnd shot him in the neckA bloody halo, like a think-bubble circling his headAnd I bellowed at the firmamentLooks like the rains are hear to stayAnd the rain pissed down upon meAnd washed me all away SayingPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyWell, the road is long and the road is hardAnd many fall by the sideBut Papa won't leave you, HenrySo there ain't no need to cryAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadWell, the moon it looked exhaustedLike something you should pitySpent an age-spotted lightAbove the sizzling wires of the cityWell, it reminded me of her faceHer bleached and hungry eyesHer hair was like a curtainFalling open with the laughterAnd closing with the liesBut the ghost of her still lingers onThough she's passed through me and is goneThe slum dogs, they are barkingAnd the rain children on the streetsAnd the tears that we will weep todayWill all be washed awayBy the tears that we will weep again, we'll weep again tomorrowPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyFor the road is long and the road is hardAnd many fall by the sideBut Papa won't leave you, HenrySo there ain't no need to cryAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadAnd I came upon a little houseA little house upon a hillAnd I entered through, the curtain hissedInto the house with its blood-red bowelsWhere wet-lipped women with greasy fistsCrawled the ceilings and the wallsThey filled me full of drinkAnd led me round the roomsNaked and cold and grinningUntil everything went blackAnd I came down spinningI awoke so drunk and full of rageThat I could hardly speakA fag in a whale-bone corsetDraping his dick across my cheekAnd its into the shameAnd its into a guiltAnd its into the fucking frayAnd the walls ran red around meA warm arterial spray SayingPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyWell, the night is darkAnd the night is deepAnd its jaws are open wideBut Papa won't leave you, HenrySo there ain't no need to cryAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadIt's the rainy season where I'm livingDeath comes leaping out of every doorwayWasting you for money, for your clothesAnd for your nothingEntire towns being washed awayFavelas exploding on inflammable spillwaysLynch-mobs, death squads, babies being born without brainsThe mad heat and the relentless rainsAnd if you stick your arm into that holeIt comes out sheared off to the boneAnd with her kisses bubbling on my lipsI swiped the rain and nearly missedAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the road SingingPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyPapa won't leave you, HenryPapa won't leave you, BoyWell, the road is long and the road is hardAnd many fall by the sideBut Papa won't leave you, HenrySo there ain't no need to cryAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadAnd I went on down the roadHe went on down the roadBent beneath my heavy loadUnder his heavy loadAnd I went on down that road
