paroles de chanson Abbatoir Blues - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Sun is high up in the sky and I'm in my car
Drifting down into the abattoir
Do you see what I see, dear?
The air grows heavy
I listen to your breath
Entwined together in this culture of death
Do you see what I see, dear?
Slide on over here, let me give you a squeeze
To avert this unholy evolutionary trajectory
Can you hear what I hear, babe?
Does it make you feel afraid?
Everything's dissolving, babe, according to plan
(Oh yeah)
The sky is on fire, the dead are heaped across the lane
(Oh yeah)
I went to bed last night and my moral code got jammed
(Oh yeah)
I woke up this morning with a Frappuccino in my hand
(Oh yeah)
I kissed you once
I kissed you again
My heart, it tumbled like
The stock exchange
Do you feel what I feel, dear?
Mass extinction, darling
Hypocrisy
These things are not good for me
Do you see what I see, dear?
The line the God throws down to you and me
Makes a pleasing geometry
Shall we leave this place now, dear?
Is there some way out of here?
I wake with the sparrows and I hurry off to work
(Oh yeah)
The need for validation, babe, gone completely berserk
(Oh yeah)
I wanted to be your Superman, but I turned out such a jerk
I got the abattoir blues
I got the abattoir blues
I got the abattoir blues
Right down to my shoes
(Abattoir blues)
Down to my shoes
(Abattoir blues)
(Abattoir blues)
(Abattoir blues)
(Abattoir blues)
(Abattoir blues)
