nick cave and the bad seeds – shivers (howard) lyrics
i’ve been contemplating suicide,
but it really doesn’t suit my style,
so i think i’ll just act bored instead
who can take (alt: and contain) the blood i would’ve shed?
she makes me feel so ugly (alt: so weary) (alt: so i’ll at ease)
my heart is really on it’s knees
but i keep a poker face so well
that even mother couldn’t tell
but my baby’s so vain
she is almost a mirror
and the sound of her name
sends a permanent shiver down my
spine
i keep her photograph against my heart
for in my life she plays a starring part
all alcohol and cigarettes
there is no room for cheap regrets
but my baby’s so vain
she is almost a mirror
and the sound of her name
sends a permanent shiver down my
spine
she makes me feel so ugly
my heart is really on it’s knees
but i keep a poker face so well
that even mother couldn’t tell
but my baby’s so vain
she is almost a mirror
and the sound of her name
sends a perennial shiver down my
spiii-yi-yiiii-yi-yiiii-yi-yiyiyi-ine
