Nick Cave "That's What Jazz Is To Me" |
Jazz [Incomprehensible] Fire eating drag queens dressed as society whores Crazy two timing bitches running round [Incomprehensible] Ghetto blasting blasters, blasting magnificently Blossoms falling from the cherry trees That's what jazz is to me High buildings with crippled backs Circle around my dreams I clutch at the greasy tails of my dreams White blossom falling from the cherry trees That's what jazz is to me Ten bottles standing in a row military style With hats pulled low over their brows A thousand wasted hours Skeletons entwined fucking and braying [Incomprehensible] Blossoms falling from the cherry tree That's what jazz is to me History repeating itself like a thing aloof All the great cars of the world in one massive collision All the doctors swallowed up by one incompetence All the great theorists and teachers eaten alive [Incomprehensible] Religious ecstasy and a blossom falling from a cherry tree That's what jazz is to me Blind fish being used as musical scales Sharks puffed for fish and whales I long to be by the sea Where a blossom falls from a cherry tree That's what jazz is to me Three forms, four forms, five forms, six forms Seven forms, eight forms, nine forms, yeah A blossom falling from the cherry tree That's what jazz is to me As Einstein said about his theory I love it, I love it, I love jazz It's in your heart It's in your soul It's in your mind The color of death, sweet vanilla essence Richard Harris and Donald Pleasance And a cherry blossom falling from a cherry tree That's what jazz is to me Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
