o wow o wow

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

She rises in advance of her panties
I can confirm that God actually exists
She turns and smiles but never ever scantily
O wow! O wow! How wonderful she is!

Well, the horses, they have kicked down the stable
And the rabbits have put carrots in their ears
And her coloured crayons dance upon the table
O wow! O wow! How wonderful she feels!

The country doctor whistles across the meadow
And the schoolboy, he hops up and says Gee whiz!
The dogs, they are all barking at their shadows
O wow! O wow! How wonderful she is!

O wow! O wow! Well, nothing could compare
Her friends, now dead, their spectral chins all nod
And they braid a band of violets through her hair
O wow! O wow! How wonderful she was
How wonderful she is!

Do you remember we used to really, really have fun?
We d be just by ourselves, mucking around,
really relaxed, not under pressure
I guess that s how we make up songs!
I... I remember we were in bed,
and then we imagined somebody upstairs
I don t even know if we heard footsteps,
or imagined footsteps and then imagined the story
That was in that little place opposite Brixton Prison
I didn t even realise that everyone wasn t like that
We tried to write a contract of love
But we only got as far as doing the border
There was never any words in it
Which I thought said a lot more than anything else
