CocoRosie - Lost Girls Lyrics






Warming the hearts of tragic hoodlum spirits
Brighten the eyes of petty thieves who crawl at night
Who feign to use a knife
Jingle jangle the cosmo's are on fire
The blazing lines of the criminal choir
Rejoiced to be alive
Broken and depraved
Sullied mop and rusted pail
Centuries of poison to escape this heaven or hell
This earthly cell of dead flowers and so many wounded foes
It's hard to remember fantasy or horror
Unwanted caresses
Little Lolitas who want to be held in large hands

Dear Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed by thine name
Witches confused by their own magic
Witches displeased by their own perfume
Shame-locked women
Shaman women fuming with shame
Love-locked women
Women their own magic women
Shadow body, shadow spirit
White blood, blue night
Angels lyrics
Female creature wilted high in the raftors
Orgies of dust and butterfly laughter
Shadows spilling into the babe's milk
Sorry eyes of ghost's memoir
Four blue plus two, that makes six
That's twelve times two
Two brown eyes, one green
Hazel's asleep in the hayloft
Down the road drowning in dry grass
In the sweet maiden's lap poisened with nightshade
Witches last laugh
Stick your thumb out
Lift up your skirt
Someone's gonna stop here soon

Take down your hair and wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home
Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's gonna stop here soon
Take down your hair and wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

Even though red's not your color
I'll dress you in feathers
And fly you in the windy weather
Like a child bird marooned on an island of cats
Little dewy brawling cats
With cross-eyed and hats
They take mercy on you
They take you for walks
The mercy choir singing dismal hymns
Watery bible rhymes
All jumbled a mess
A mess of bright graves and flowers and balloons

Stick out your thumb
And lift up your skirt
Someone's bound to stop here soon
Take down your hair and wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's bound to stop here soon
Take down your hair and wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's bound to stop here soon
Take down your hair and wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

With a knapsack of trinkets
I'm off to seek my fortune again
Chasing ghosts of dead orphans
Friend, cousin, or kin
We wave to the passer by
Moth wings of a butterfly
Endless tracks where no car pass
Close your eyes and you can fly
I'm off to meet my soul mate
A naked fawny jail bate
Wading into ponds
Filly with pollywogs at dawn
Mournin' the light
That slipped from my eyes
A little child with dirty nails
And dirty hair
I had dirty things scrawled upon my mind

Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's gonna stop here soon
Take down your hair, wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's gonna stop here soon
Take down your hair, wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's gonna stop here soon
Take down your hair, wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
Someone's gonna stop here soon
Take down your hair, wind up your grin
Someone's gonna take you home

    Warming the hearts of tragic hoodlum spirits

    It's hard to remember fantasy or horror
    Unwarranted caresses
    Little Lolitas who want to be held in large hands

    Dear Father, who art in heaven
    Hollow be thy name
    Witches confused by their own magic
    Witches displeased by their own perfume
    Shame-lock woman
    Shaman woman fuming with shame
    Love-lock woman
    Women their own magic women

    A naked fawny jailbait
    Wading into ponds
    Filly with polliwogs at dawn
    Mourning the light that slipped from my eyes

    This is the shit. I want to do a video with these women. I saw you all in Tallahassee in 2005. You open for TV on the Radio and then play pool terribly on the side. It was the best show I'd ever seen.

  38. L.... I....

    This music was recommended to me on Spotify and OMG I fell in love with her music *__*

  39. J.... W....

    Rhode Island is a place for CocoRosie!

  40. N.... M....

    excelent

  41. A.... S....

    I usually like Cocorosie and this song has an awesome melody but why should the girls 'lift up their skirt' to come home. In the video mostly men who drive the cars so this sounds weird to me to 'stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt'.

    A.... S....

    i think she's trying to say these girls are looking for a ride to somewhere but then they had to have sex to pay for this ride

    A.... S....

    Those lyrics are used sarcastically. She's not saying girls should actually do that but that's what has been said to women for decades: show some skin and someone will come along, lift your skirt up and let a man in and you'll be loved, you'll find home through a man. But that's not what home is, home is already in you and so is all your power.

    A.... S....

    ohh beautiful interpretation!! thanks for sharing ♥

    A.... S....

    CocoRosie has never been sarcastic they are more like observing society and making art about it.

    A.... S....

    @chrismail I think they mean satire and by your side I think they even said that was supposed to be satire two meaning can be Interpreted either way

  42. M.... A....

    This divine song have touched my witch soul! I love Cocorosie: My witch sisters )O( Thanks for the messages hidden in your beautiful music... Keep making magic!

  43. R.... ....

    At first viewing I completely failed to notice Bianca between the lost girls at the end, I was distracted by the girl next to her who seemed to be struggling (and wondering if shown struggle was physical or mental) then I noticed Sierra, who kind of glanced behind, which made me go 'wait a second..'
    Bianca with the moustache and the cowboy hat sort of reminds me of some of Johnny Depp's better roles.
    Cats taking us for walks.. best description of paradise I heard yet.

    Top song, good video. Cannot wait for new CocoRosie stuff, my 5 year old loves this stuff, as do i.

  49. L.... L....

    I sobbed hysterically when I first listened to this. Absolutely breathtaking beauty and truth.

    Sullied mop and rusted pail
    Centuries of poison to escape this heaven or hell
    This earthly cell of dead flowers and so many wounded foes
    It's hard to remember fantasy or horror

    In the sweet maiden's lap poisened with nightshade
    Witches last laugh
    Stick your thumb out
    Lift up your skirt
    Someone's gonna stop here soon

    <3

    Take down your hair and wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home
    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's gonna stop here soon
    Take down your hair and wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    <3

    Even though red's not your color
    I'll dress you in feathers
    And fly you in the windy weather
    Like a child bird marooned on an island of cats
    Little dewy brawling cats
    With cross-eyed and hats
    They take mercy on you
    They take you for walks
    The mercy choir singing dismal hymns
    Watery bible rhymes
    All jumbled a mess
    A mess of bright graves and flowers and balloons

    Stick out your thumb
    And lift up your skirt
    Someone's bound to stop here soon
    Take down your hair and wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's bound to stop here soon
    Take down your hair and wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's bound to stop here soon
    Take down your hair and wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    With a knapsack of trinkets
    I'm off to seek my fortune again
    Chasing ghosts of dead orphans
    Friend, cousin, or kin
    We wave to the passer by
    Moth wings of a butterfly
    Endless tracks where no car pass
    Close your eyes and you can fly
    I'm off to meet my soul mate
    A naked fawny jail bate
    Wading into ponds
    Filly with pollywogs at dawn
    Mournin' the light
    That slipped from my eyes
    A little child with dirty nails
    And dirty hair
    I had dirty things scrawled upon my mind

    <3

    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's gonna stop here soon
    Take down your hair, wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's gonna stop here soon
    Take down your hair, wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's gonna stop here soon
    Take down your hair, wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

    Stick out your thumb and lift up your skirt
    Someone's gonna stop here soon
    Take down your hair, wind up your grin
    Someone's gonna take you home

  56. M.... D....

    'little dewy brawling cats'.... is now one of my favorite lyrics ever, forever...

  57. R.... ....

    this made me tear up :')

  58. A.... M....

    Excelentes imagenes!!

  59. J.... S....

    Jim Morrison-like with the poetry and music

  60. B.... M....

    Esta canción es hermosa ❤

  61. c.... ....

    these women have been some of the most influential people in my life, i am so grateful for their art

  62. C.... M....

    "perfecta" no necesito escribir más sobre está canción!

  63. N.... V....

    everytime i see them live i can't think of anything else but leave everything behind and just follow them around.
    being around them must be the most fascinating and freeing thing in this whole universe

    N.... V....

    "everytime i see them live" - I would give my left boob to see them live! Come to South Africa CocoRosie!!

  64. V.... ....

    THANK YOU!!!

  65. N.... S....

    Forgive me for my ignorance but is this song about women and girls who have been abused, taken advantage of and raped by men?

    N.... S....

    yes in essence but these women also end up getting stuck in a life of being taken advantage of and getting used, where nobody respects them anyways and so that's the life they end up living. prostitution and one night stands. different men say they love them all the time although they leave the next morning, and so these women who desperately want love, accept these one night stands because fake love is better than no love and they cant have real love because they don't even respect themselves, so even they cant fall into true love they might as well pretend they can.

  66. A.... D....

    the absolute most weird ass band I can't help but be fascinated by.

    A.... D....

    Asa Davidson same here :)

  67. o.... ....

    are they not saying "HOLLOW be thy name" as a play on words? it s what i hear & what seems more fitting

    o.... ....

    Yeah, I think so!

    o.... ....

    I think so, with the way she emphasizes it.

  68. P.... B....

    this is the most worst music ever dumb shit her voice is stoopid man vote trump and put an end to tegan and Sarah coco Rosie and these stoopid groups

    P.... B....

    Caleb Olson The book is called 1984, about a government who doesn't allow freedoms like music...or anything else. You really want music limited? Different ideas banned?
    But ahh I shouldn't have fed the troll.

  73. J.... S....

    Reminds me of a Jack Kerouc poem.

    J.... S....

    good call, totally does

  74. _.... d....

    real great.

  75. T.... F....

    I love this band so much, the lyric is awesome representing us women, but I think the video just have white girls... We need representativity, black girls, fat girls... By the way, I love CocoRosie, come to Brazil!

    T.... F....

    this video was filmed in Argentina, we dont have many black people here... maybe is that :)

    T.... F....

    No. YOU feel you need representativity in a fucking music video.

    T.... F....

    Camila Belén Calm down, kid.

    CocoRosie preaches equality for all but then doesn't portray accurate representation in their videos. That's a big thing that many people point out.

    Feminism isn't for a single group of women, and I'm sure Bianca and Sierra realise that, but they have a hard time showing that message in their music videos.

    But like someone previously said, they filmed in Argentina, so the lack of brown people is understood.

    Everything OP said has merit.

    T.... F....

    lol nah

    T.... F....

    Tarsila Figueiredo to my european eyes there are definitely not only white girls in his video, its all so relative

  76. S.... R....

    This O.O

  77. B.... T....

    She sucks so bad O M G

  78. S.... M....

    so extremely meaningful and touching, so much talent so much love

  79. M.... U....

    I've read the lyrics and I still don't know what's this song about. Could anybody enlighten me?

    M.... U....

    Being a girl/woman?being troubled

    M.... U....

    It's about how young women just want love and get confused into thinking that physical intimacy equals love, so they put themselves forward as sex objects even though that is not what they actually want. How women enjoy power dynamics between the sexes but get hurt by them. "Lift up your skirt, someone's gonna take you home..."

  80. l.... ....

    this music video breaks my heart everytime

  81. A.... D....
