Scott Walker - Tilt Lyrics

He was so strong
he was so bold

When they made him

they broke the mold

If he heads this way
when the moon is slow

Come over and pray

they'll turn the buffalo

they'll turn the buffalo

There's a need to sleep
in the shag of his stomach

Slide around his eye
with your love in tow

If he heads this way
don't you say hello

Get out of the way

they'll turn the buffalo

they'll turn the buffalo

Our town our town
do love a stampede

Stampede by my jacket
in the park

Someday I'll
pick it up
look for the
label and whisper

Tilt

ain't got no no no

Tilt

got none at all

Tilt

ain't got no no no

A mother waits
as still as
the moonlight

Standing in
long grass
with her

cold cold nose

What she feels so deep
she will never show

Baby don't you weep

they'll turn the buffalo

they'll turn the buffalo

Our town our town
do love a stampede

Stampede by my old
jacket in the park

Someday
I'll pick it up
look for the
maker and whisper

Tilt

ain't got no no no

Tilt got none at all

Tilt
ain't got no no no
not at all
