Cure, The - Bird Mad Girl Lyrics

I don,t understand, this récord got good song,like this, but reallyment is irregular, 6/10,

A stranger has come

To share my room in the house not right in the head,

A girl mad as birds



Bolting the night of the door with her arm her plume.

Strait in the mazed bed

She deludes the heaven-proof house with entering clouds



Yet she deludes with walking the nightmarish room,

At large as the dead,

Or rides the imagined oceans of the male wards.



She has come possessed

Who admits the delusive light through the bouncing wall,

Possessed by the skies



She sleeps in the narrow trough yet she walks the dust

Yet raves at her will

On the madhouse boards worn thin by my walking tears.



And taken by light in her arms at long and dear last

I may without fail

Suffer the first vision that set fire to the stars.

This girl has got a smile
That can make me cry
This girl just burns with love
She's burning burning deep outside🖤

Chameleons, across the line https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htyYVcCY80Q

Man, the 80's were the best.

Like a polar bear.....

guauuuuuuuuuuu,
cure eres mi cura !!!!

The Top is a place where nobody goes...you just imagine it all!!!

Never heard this song before. It is good.

Really weird finally going through this album! Good stuff. I had The Walk ep in '83 and Head on the Door in '85. Heard most stuff from mid 80's on but this one got lost.

pretty much a solo album, he tried hard to kill the band with this.

Who's listening in 2019?

Oh...would it be just me...ever and for ever :)

Yes.. severely underrated record from them..

I am - how times have changed. I believe you can buy polar bear suits these days

Me from Italy! Always, since 2000!!

What Bird mad girl means?

she's flies outside this cage singing girl mad words.

but it's impossible

One of the last awesome song they made !

A Fond ! Merci jewelsky2012 !

its a beautiful song

Who made those artworks in the 80s?? Anyone knows??

Porl Thompson, the guitar player.

Là je voyage 😊😎

J'ai 50 ans et j'aime The Cure depuis mes 16 ans.. Cette chanson est superbe, indémodable 😆

Such an interesting song

какая прелесть)

Underrated song

Underrated album. Robert was criticized for being high on drugs during the making of the album and distracted with other projects (Siouxsie & the Banshees) but I think the Top is a super creative and diverse record and stands up to the test of time really well .

@Herve B no kidding. Love the top. Especially this song.

@Herve B it's a very diverse and experimental record. It's far from their best but has moments of brilliance such as this track and the caterpillar ❤

It's oe of my fav Cure's songs... anybody pls tell me how 6 plp don't like it

Gives me smiles

i like this..i love this...it's cute..it has a cute little beat.. and the vocals of course could only be the Cure..They come up with the coolest songs.. or whoever wrote it! i like it!

The Top was pretty much a solo album by Robert Smith. Laurence Tolhurst sat in on a few sessions for company.

The best of The Top <3

The "girl" with the smile was Siouxsie.

Alex Leah how do you know that?

It waa mary duh

Nope. It was Mary Smith.

definitive cure

did I say beautiful?

love it.. still.. 26 years and more

Anyone else notice the lyrical resemblance to "Burn" (later featured on the soundtrack to The Crow)?

My personal favorite <3

all the world´s love to Robert Smith...

somebody had a terrible dream inside there mind and needs to get it out...

fave song since i was 11

Goddamn the cure are versatile

Yeah they are. I love how you can watch a bunch of their videos and Lol Tolhurt at one point is their drummer, another point keyboardist, another point horn player. Robert started out as just the guitar player in their earlier incarnation. He never planned on singing, then the singer left, so he took over. Robert's under-rated as a guitar player too. Just finished listening to "The Blood", a pretty different feel from any of their other songs.

@BayviewFinch Lol never really played trumpet. Those were keyboards on all those Kiss Me songs.

@Herve B Andrew Brennen – saxophone on "Icing Sugar" and "Hey You!!!" ; Porl Thompson – guitar, keyboards, saxophone

Yes indeed .

sounds like The Smiths - Barbarism Begins at Home

actually I got here from barbarism begins at home, where someone commented it sounded just like this one.

anom pard I would say it's the other way around. The Top was released nearly a year before Meat Is Murder.

anom pard i dont think so just my opinion

The Top was released 30 April 1984. Meat is Murder was released 11 February 1985.

nope . nope mesmo

How can you be so great? The song is so good.

Good taste sir

the beginning guitar has something that makes me feel very good

That is the secret of music and I do agree this music is superb

BlackStormPAIN me too!

The cure si magic!! feels so good!..

for me, "in between days" it´s a kickass of all songs of "the cure" :)

This is one of the most beautiful songs by The Cure.
Flangy guitars & nice basswork, Elated, happy and yet bittersweet. One of the few Cure songs i can listen to on a nice summer day. :)

Not a fan of "Last Day of Summer"? Ha ha ha.

Cl4rendon my fav vocal

Ive always thought of Kiss Me x3 as being a "summery" album

Cure all year round for me.

I can listen to any The Cure song on a nice hot summer day...

as mad as birds

My Fav Cure Song From The Top Album.

Albert MUFC my fav album of theirs
