Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Lie Down Here (& Be My Girl) Lyrics






Well, you lost a foe
And found yourself a friend

(Lie down here & be my girl)
I'm back now, baby, that man

He won't be coming round here again

(Lie down here & be my girl)

I'm trying to tread careful, baby
You're as brittle as the wishbone of a bird

(Lie down here & be my girl)

We've been scribbled in the margins of a story
That's patently absurd

(Lie down here & be my girl)

And let it all come down tonight
We can shine, shine
Let it all come down

(Be my girl, be my girl)

It's a matter of some urgency, oh darling, can't you see
I can't hold back the tide

(Lie down here & be my girl)

And stop your frantic little fingers trying to collect the years
That pour from the hole in my side

(Lie down here & be my girl)

Oh, don't worry, baby, this old snake banging on your door
Has got a few skins left to shed

(Lie down here & be my girl)

Oh, you look so good, you look so good
The rest is better left unsaid

(Lie down here & be my girl)

And let it all come down tonight
And shine, oh, we can shine
Let it all come down
Tonight

(Be my girl, yeah, be my girl)

You look so good, you look so good

One day I'll buy a factory
And assemble you on a production line

(Lie down here & be my girl)

I'd buy a million of you, baby
And every single one of them will be mine

(Lie down here & be my girl)

I will fill the house with you, stack you up in every room
We'll have a real good time

(Lie down here & be my girl)

But right now, I'm sitting here on my own
Going out of my mind

(Lie down here & be my girl)

And let it all come down tonight
And shine, oh, we can shine
Let it all come down
Tonight

You look so good, you look so good

  1. N.... B....

    bien y / perdu un ennemi &

    y a trouvé un ami

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    Je suis de retour maintenant / bébé / cet homme

    il ne reviendra pas ici

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    J'essaie de faire attention / bébé

    aussi fragile que le triangle d'un oiseau

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    nous avons été griffonnés dans les marges

    d'une histoire qui est manifestement absurde

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    et laisser tout descendre

    ce soir

    (et briller et briller)

    et laisser tout descendre

    (sois ma fille / sois ma fille)

    c'est une urgence

    o ma chérie ne peut pas y / voir / je ne peux pas retenir la marée

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    & arrêtez vos petits doigts frénétiques en essayant de collecter

    les années qui coulent du trou dans mon côté

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    o ne t'inquiète pas bébé / ce vieux serpent

    frapper à votre porte a quelques peaux à jeter

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    oy / regarde si bien / y / regarde tellement tellement bien

    le reste est préférable de ne pas le dire

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    laissez tout descendre

    ce soir

    (et briller et nous pouvons briller)

    laissez tout descendre

    ce soir (soit ma fille)

    un jour j'achèterai une usine et je monterai y /

    sur une ligne de production

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    Je construirais un million de y / bébé

    & chacun d'eux sera à moi

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    Je vais remplir la maison w / y / pile y / up

    dans chaque chambre / nous passerons un bon moment

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    mais maintenant / je suis assis ici

    tout seul / sortir de mon esprit

    (couche toi ici et sois ma fille)

    laissez tout descendre

    ce soir

    (et briller et briller)

    ce soir

    ce soir (soit ma fille)

    y / l'air si bon

    y / l'air si bon

    & tc & tc & tc

  2. L.... D....

    Ellis is a complete badass

  3. j.... ....

    great performance but horribly shot

  4. L.... D....

    that's what I was thinking too, but nick's performance is great, i just meant the sound of the whole song isn't even great as on the album?

  5. L.... D....

    Not a super performance for this great song, isn't ?

  6. E.... E....

    There's really no problem with the performance from Nick's POV, but in my personal opinion Warren's playing on this is a bit off.

    He's fine until they hit the "Let it all come down" bit. I think he changes the Mandocaster's tone and it manages to ruin the energy of the song. He's playing some pretty tasty licks during the verses, though.

  7. D.... S....

    This is kind of embarrassingly bad. Which stinks, because this is one of the coolest songs on the new album. :-(

  8. H.... B....

    I kind of like the shoddiness of it.
    It gives the dark vibe rough edges.
    Goth Garage Punk?

  9. F.... H....

    whats wrong with this show ? sync is out but something seems wrong with the band. never thought i'd say that

  10. E.... E....

    Unless the video isn't synched properly, something odd is definitely going on with Harvey's mic.
