CocoRosie - Tears For Animals Lyrics






Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

Heart so hollow I tried to swallow
Pistols, nightshade, ghosts and gallow
All you fellows climbed me like a staircase, wore me down
Smooth from footfall, wore me down
(Wore me down)

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

So long sweet thing, my old man,
Left me grieving, black and blue and tan
I've the feeling you'll be kneeling
When the day turns forever into night

(Hope for healing if you're willing)

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

Orphan girl, child, sing along
Stop the slaughter of our daughters
Poisoning the water
(Do you have love for humankind?)
Heart strings broken, wearily tuned to the moon
Bastard widows born marooned
(Do you have love for humankind?)
Nameless, faceless black-eyed soul
Slave to sorrow, find your way home

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
(Hope for healing if you're willing)
Do you have love for humankind?
(Hope for healing if you're willing)
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

  18. b.... ....

    this song kidnap my mind..

  19. f.... ....

    You know you're a dedicated cocorosie fan when you're able to tell that the automated voice thingy is saying the lyrics for "far away"

  20. H.... P....

    Perfection!!!!!!!

  21. E.... B....

    ANIMALS ARE AMAZING!

  22. P.... L....

    You know the feeling when you hear or see something and you realise if you haven't seen this, you would miss it?

  23. G.... G....

    Best CocoRosie song ever. 

  24. L.... S....

    Hi,
    you can record any music with audacity software....

  25. C.... R....

    There's no album from this session?

  26. J.... C....

    wheeeeen? :D

  27. j.... a....

    I wonder why whenever sierra starts to sing she waves her hands. I still love her

  28. j.... a....

    Every time i listen i get into some sort of trance..? i still love it though

  29. t.... ....

    I'd love to have them too... the Berlin version is simply amazing... and the other songs recorded there too... turn me on , on fire, etc
    How did u get them?

  30. W.... C....

    This song has a very strong emotional effect on me - almost overwhelming! I love it so much! What a great live version and so different from the b-side or album - both of which I find exquisite! The "wore me down" line destroys me every time! THANK YOU CocoRosie and all these wonderful musicians!

  31. i.... g....

    this is heroine for my ears

    i.... g....

    Earoine

  32. P.... R....

    Do you already have it? I can send it to you if you want.

  33. D.... E....

    I love both versions of this song... they speak to two sides of me. The line that is repeated in both of the songs "Do you have love for human kind?" is the primary focus, but has a slightly different feeling with each of the vocalist in my opinion. I feel like, in this version, that phrase is tapping into my unconditional love for all people, undoubtedly... while the other version says that and the part of me that wants say "yes" but is afraid speaks louder. I'm not sure why that is.

  34. B.... B....

    thank you guys.

  35. O.... Y....

    so much better like this ^.^

  36. M.... F....

    wonderful root music

    given through you musicians

  37. M.... J....

    I Love You!

  38. f.... ....

  42. S.... N....

    Look for the tumblr: cocorosieland. There's a link for downloading these songs. I did. I'm grateful. I can't even... Cocorosie saves me every day. Going to Europe just so that I can see them perform live once and live happy like a dark balloon.

  43. e.... g....

    Que bom ouvir um som irreverente, assim , sem compromisso com açúcar ...

  44. A.... R....

  50. m.... ....

    prefer this to version with antony

  51. I.... R....

    does anyone know how they create the robo-voice-effect in the beginning?

  52. I.... R....

    in the end they all looked as if someone forgot their part or something and thereby ruined the ending :D

    I.... R....

    I noticed that too.

  53. y.... ....

    YES, something like that would be amazing.

  54. a.... r....
