Divine Comedy, The - Sticks And Stones Lyrics
You and I
Go together
Like the molar
And the drill
Flesh is weak
That the ego's
Weaker still
I've been hung
Drawn and quartered
Slowly slaughtered
Like a goat
By the tongue
Of a woman
Who just couldn't
Let it go
Sticks and stones may break my body
But words can tear me apart
So be careful what you tell me
Spare a thought for my heart
For my heart
Broken bones
Fuse together
Bruises never
Last for long
But once they're said
Words stay spoken
And hearts stay broken
From that moment on
Sticks and stones may break my body
But words can tear me apart
So be careful what you tell me
Spare a thought for my heart
Spare a thought for my heart

Divine Comedy, The Sticks And Stones Comments
Oh that ending!
LOVE all your songs and sounds. Danny MacAskill showed taste in music and finally introduced you to me - and Austria <3 I can't get enough of your voice and deepness .....
"spare a thought for my heart...."
great song
Maybe the best DC song. The conclusion never gets old. I prefer the track on Spotify since it has backing vocals, as does the Live at the Palladium version. There's also an early version with completely different instruments.
I always think Neil sounds like Scott Walker on this track.
Sure does. with similar music too.
He is a huge fan of Scott, I heard several times.
"Slowly slaughtered... like a goat." Great line!
