Текст песни The Mercy Seat (Single Version;1998 Remaster) - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
I
began
to
warm
and
chill
To
objects
and
their
fields,
A
ragged
cup,
a
twisted
mop
The
face
of
Jesus
in
my
soup
Those
sinister
dinner
deals
The
meal
trolley's
wicked
wheels
A
hooked
bone
rising
from
my
food
All
things
either
good
or
ungood.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
burning
And
in
a
way
I'm
yearning
To
be
done
with
all
this
measuring
of
proof.
An
eye
for
an
eye
A
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway
I
told
the
truth
And
I'm
not
afraid
to
die.
Interpret
signs
and
catalogue
A
blackened
tooth,
a
scarlet
fog.
The
walls
are
bad.
Black.
Bottom
kind.
They
are
sick
breath
at
my
hind
They
are
sick
breath
at
my
hind
They
are
sick
breath
at
my
hind
They
are
sick
breath
gathering
at
my
hind
I
hear
stories
from
the
chamber
How
Christ
was
born
into
a
manger
And
like
some
ragged
stranger
Died
upon
the
cross
And
might
I
say,
it
seems
so
fitting
in
its
way
He
was
a
carpenter
by
trade
Or
at
least
that's
what
I'm
told
Like
my
good
hand
tattooed
E.V.I.L.
across
it's
brother's
fist
That
filthy
five!
They
did
nothing
to
challenge
or
resist.
In
Heaven
His
throne
is
made
of
gold
The
ark
of
his
Testament
is
stowed
A
throne
from
which
I'm
told
All
history
does
unfold.
Down
here
it's
made
of
wood
and
wire
And
my
body
is
on
fire
And
God
is
never
far
away.
Into
the
mercy
seat
I
climb
My
head
is
shaved,
my
head
is
wired
And
like
a
moth
that
tries
To
enter
the
bright
eye
So
I
go
shuffling
out
of
life
Just
to
hide
in
death
awhile
And
anyway
I
never
lied.
My
kill-hand
is
called
E.V.I.L.
Wears
a
wedding
band
that's
G.O.O.D.
'Tis
a
long-suffering
shackle
Collaring
all
that
devil
blood.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
a-burning
And
I
think
my
head
is
flowing
And
in
a
way
I'm
hoping
To
be
done
with
all
this
weighing
up
of
truth.
An
eye
for
an
eye
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
I've
got
nothing
left
to
lose
And
I'm
not
afraid
to
die.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
burning
And
in
a
way
I'm
yearning
To
be
done
with
all
this
measuring
of
proof
An
eye
for
an
eye
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway,
there
was
no
proof
And
nor
a
motive
why.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
burning
And
in
a
way
I'm
yearning
To
be
done
with
all
this
measuring
of
proof.
A
life
for
a
life
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway
there
was
no
proof
And
I'm
not
afraid
to
die.
Now
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
smoking
And
in
a
way
I'm
hoping
To
be
done
with
all
these
looks
of
disbelief.
A
eye
for
an
eye
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway
I
told
the
truth
And
I'm
not
afraid
to
die.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
burning
And
in
a
way
I'm
yearning
To
be
done
with
all
this
measuring
of
proof
An
eye
for
an
eye
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway
I
told
the
truth
And
I'm
not
afraid
to
die.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
burning
And
in
a
way
I'm
yearning
To
be
done
with
all
this
measuring
of
proof.
A
eye
for
a
eye
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway
I
told
the
truth
But
I'm
not
afraid
to
lie.
And
the
mercy
seat
is
waiting
And
I
think
my
head
is
burning
And
in
a
way
I'm
yearning
To
be
done
with
all
this
measuring
of
proof
An
eye
for
an
eye
And
a
tooth
for
a
tooth
And
anyway
I
told
the
truth
But
I'm
afraid
I
told
a
lie.
