1.The Friend Catcher

作詞:Nick Cave

I, cigarette fingers
Puff and poke
Puff and poking the smoke
It touches the ground

You and your lungs and your wrist
They throb like trains
Choo choo choo
It's a prison of sound

Of sound

She by a chinny chin chin
Eee oh eee oh
Like a Zippo smokes the way
Poke around

You and your lungs and your wrist
They throb like trains
Choo choo choo
It's a prison of sound

I poke around

She by the hair of my chinny chin chin
Eee oh eee oh eee oh eee oh
Like a Zippo smokes the way
Poke around

You and your lungs and your wrists
They throb like trains
Poke around

I poke around

It's a wild world, hey, it's a wild world, hey

Church bells ring out the toll of our night
A forward and forever backward, forever backward, forever

Strophe and antistrophe, strophe and antistrophe, hey
Antistophe, antistrophe, ohh, c'mon baby and kiss me tonight

It's a wild world, a wild world
Up here in your arms tonight

3.Blundertown

作詞:Howard Rowland Stuart

Blundertown is drowned in no brainstorm
Smothered in mud at the foot of the river
The color vague is slapped around stupid
Blood dries to a very dull color

I'm drowning and there is no relief from

It's only 12,000 miles to heaven
But the car is broken and we're all well-spoken
I've met three people but I don't think they like me
And we all talk about the state of the weather

I'm drowning and there is no relief from

And everything I say are my own thoughts
Don't listen to my very dull brother

I'm drowning and there is no relief from


4.Release the Bats

作詞:Cave Nicholas Edward, Harvey Mick

Whoah bite
Whoah bite

Release the bats, release the bats
Don't tell me that it doesn't hurt
A hundred fluttering in your skirt
Oh, don't tell me that it doesn't hurt

My baby is alright
She doesn't mind a bit of dirt
She says, 'Horror vampire, bat bite'
She says, 'Horror vampire
How I wish those bats would bite'
Whoah bite, whoah bite

Release the bats and release the bats
Pump them up and explode the things
Her legs are chafed by sticky wings
The sticky, sticky little things

My baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pulse of her generator
Says, 'Damn that sex supreme'
She says, 'Damn that horror bat'
Sex vampire, cool machine, uh

Release the bats, release the bats
Release them

Baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pulse of her generator
She says, 'Damn that sex supreme'
She says, she says, 'Damn that horror bat'
Sex horror, sex bat, sex horror, sex vampire
Sex bat, horror vampire, sex

Cool machine
Horror bat, bite
Cool machine, bite
Sex vampire, bite
Whoah, bite


5.Happy Birthday

作詞:Creatore Luigi, Peretti Hugo E, Plattner Herbert

It's a very happy day
We are at lots of fun, fun, fun, fun
And it's ice cream and jelly
And a punch in the belly
How much can you throw over the walls?

And see how his face glows
It's a bike, what a surprise!
It's a big bike, what a big surprise!
It's a red bike, what a red surprise!
Oh, what a surprise!

But the best thing there
But the best thing there
Was the wonderful dog chair
Was the beautiful dog chair
That could count right up to ten
It could count right up to ten
It went woof, woof, woof, woof, woof
Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof

And it's another happy day
He was born eleven years ago
And this year it's long trousers
And a very smart tie
Just think in five years he'll be shaving

And see how his face glows
It's an Ninja sword, what a surprise!
It's a Samurai sword, what a metal surprise!
He'll remember this day for the rest of his life

But the best thing there
But the best thing there
Is that sensuous dog chair
The immaculate dog chair
That could count right up to eleven
It could count right up to eleven
It went woof, woof, woof, woof, woof
Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof, woof

But the best thing there
But the best thing there
Was my darling the dog chair
The true, true dog chair
That could count right up to eleven
It could count right up to eleven
Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof, woof
Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof

Round and round the house
Round and round the house
Round and round the house

6.Say a Spell

作詞:Howard Rowland Stuart

Turn to my eyes so I may steal you
Snatching such a vision burns a shape into me
Yet another hole, yet another hole in this infested soul
In this infested soul

Could I keep you, keep you, keep you
Keep you here in my pocket or I would hang you out and show
around?
Not too much, not too much, oh let it ring
Oh let it ring, oh let it ring, wow! Let it ring

And maybe in time I could change
And I would try to be you and I would kill to be good
Until then, let's be eye to eye to eye to eye to eye
So say a spell, so say a spell

9.Deep in the Woods

作詞:Cave Nicholas Edward, Harvey Mick

The woods eats the woman
And dumps her honey body in the mud
Her dress floats down the well
And it assumes the shape of the body of a little girl

Yeah I recognize that girl
She stumbled in some time last loneliness
But I could not stand to touch her now
My one and onliness

Deep in the woods
Deep in the woods
Deep in the woods
A funeral is swinging

Worms make their cruel design
Saying D I E into her skin
Saying dead into belly and death into shoulder
Well last night she kissed me but then death was upon her

Deep in the woods
Deep in the woods, yeah
Deep in the woods
A funeral is swinging

Now the killed waits for the killer
And the trees all nod their heads, they are agreed
This knife feels like a knife, feels like a knife
That feels like it's feed

Yeah I recognize that girl
I took her from rags right through to the stitches
Oh pray for me now
Oh baby, tonight we sleep in separate ditches

Deep in the woods
Deep in the woods, yeah
Deep in the woods
A funeral is swinging

Love is for fools and all fools are lovers
It's raining on my house and none of the others
Love is for fools and God knows I'm still one
The sidewalks are full of love's lonely children

The sidewalks are full of love's lonely children
The sidewalks are full of love's lonely children
The sidewalks are full of love's ugly children
Oh baby let's go, ah pray for me baby, yeah pray for me baby

The sidewalk regrets that we had to kill them and


10.Jennifer's Veil

作詞:Cave Nicholas Edward, Howard Rowland Stuart

So you've come back for Jennifer
You know, she hides her face behind a veil
And I'm warning you Frankie, leave on the next train
Your Jennifer she just ain't the same

They quit waving that thing around
Oh come back, oh come back
And give me a chance to explain
Your baby will never cry again

So don't try to reach out
And don't let the ship's flag down
Point the figure-head at the storm
And drive her hard upon

Don't stop and don't stop
And don't let the veil drop
Another ship ready to sail
The rigging is tight like Jennifer's veil

She drew the curtain on her face
Ever since they came and burnt the old place down
And why is she searching through the ashes?
Why, only Jennifer knows that now
And the officer, without a word
Left all his junk and just moved out

So don't try to reach out
And don't let the ship's flag down
Point the figure-head at the glass
Smash, smash, into shards

Don't stop and don't touch
And don't let the veil drop
Behind Jennifer's veil

Oh God, Frankie is that really you
Oh, get back, don't reach out
Get back
And get that lantern out of my room

And don't try to reach out
And don't let the ship's flag down
Down, down over her, like a shroud
And let her sail on the sea like a stone

Don't touch and don't touch
And don't let the veil drop
Another ship ready to dock
The rigging comes loose like Jennifer's veil


11.Kathy's Kisses

作詞:Cave Nicholas Edward

Kathy's kisses, they fall out of
Her mouth onto the floor, collect dust
And sweep them under the door


12.Swampland

作詞:Cave Nicholas Edward, Harvey Mick, Howard Rowland Stuart, Pew
Tracy Franklin

Quicksand, I'm in it's grip
Quicksand, I'm in it's grip
A sinken in the mud
Patron saint of the bog
They come with boots of blood
With pitchfork and with club
And they're chantin' out my name
And they got doggies screamin' on a chain

Lucy, I'll love you till the end
They hunt me like a dog
Down in swamp land

So come my executioner
Come my bounty hunter
Come my county killers
I cannot run no more
I cannot run no more
I cannot run no more
No, I can't, no

Oh, Lucy, you won't see this face again
When I caught you swing and burn
Down in swamp land

The trees are veiled in fog
The trees are veiled in fog
Like so many jilted brides
Hey and now they're all breakin down and cryin'
Splashing tears upon my face
Splashing tears cold upon my face
And they smell of gasoline, I scream

Lucy, you made a sinner right out of me
And now I'm burnin' like a saint
Down in swamp land

So come my executioner
Come my bounty hunter
Come my county killers
I cannot run no more
I cannot run no more
I cannot run no more
I cannot run no more
No, I can't

Down in swamp land


13.Sonnys Burning

Hands up, who wants to die

Have you heard how Sonny's burning
Like some bright erotic star?
And he lights up the proceedings
And raises the temperature

Flame on, flame on

Someday I'll cut him down, yeah uh
Now I've seen to Sonny's burning
Yeah, someday I think, I'll cut him down
But it can get so cold in here
And he gives off such an evil heat

Flame on, flame on
Hey hey, hail my incubatic incubator

Now pay witness to Sonny's burning
Warming the damp and rotten seed
Warming the damp and rotten seed
That blooms into the demon flower
Now fire and flowers both consume me

Flame on, flame on

Evil heat is running through me, through me
Flame on, now flame on
Evil heat is running through me uh, uh, uh, uh
Flame on, flame on

Now Sonny's burning pits into me
