Darling Said Sir lyrics - Cat Power

Darling said sir I love you
Darling said sir let's get married
Darling said sir I need you
Feel so bad before you

Sir said darling watch many ?
Get a couple of
Lots of mad talking
Sir said darling want you ?
Sir said darling bring me dinner
Sir said darling get down on your knees

Sir said darling
Sir said darling

Darling said sir stop your
Darling said sir you're hurting me
Darling said sir why do you want to treat me this way ?
Don't point that gun at me

Darling said sir
Darling said sir
Darling said sir

Sir said darling shut the fuck up
sir said darling please get away
Sir said darling I don't love you
Now beg to me

Sir said darling
Sir said darling
Sir said oh oh no

Psychic Hearts lyrics - Cat power

I know you have a fucked up life
Growing up in a stupid town
Your mother was a mixed-up chick
And your father he just fucked around

A little too much for his own good
I'd kill the bastard if I could
I'd kill all the boys with their fucked up noise
And all the bullshit they seem to enjoy

In school
Call you slut
Nothing but
What the fuck are they into
Stupid fools
Losers assholes suck all the luck
Out of the world the world with you
If I can get it back to you I will
Kick their asses all over town
All over town I'll turn it over

I don't even know you that well
What the hell summer spell

What's it like
Goin' out
No-one knows what you're about
Abused and used and cut in two
The hollow man have nothing to do

Laugh all the time try to get high
And try to hide behind though lie

They fucked your head up
That's for sure
Your heart is ripped now wrapped in fur
But you know that sex is pretty insane
And magic seems to kill the pain
And the things that go on inside your brain
Makes you seem to think that you're to blame
Don't think about it
Grow it out
Love ah-all (?) and say it loud
Fight the scumbags that slap you around
Scream your crazy lost and found
We don't have to tell you what is right
We have all the faith it was not right

Sadness is and sadness was
And sadness will always be because
Comfort comes around from the strangest of men

I got no time for sad songs baby
Don't need you to say I'm crazy
Stick your tongue and you look at me
And I will buy it obviously
Push you down onto your knees
Do you laugh away in sleaze

You're not the only girl in town
But you're the only one that's got me down
Psychic hearts go out to you
Psychic heart go round to you

My prayer to you
Is that you do all the things you set out to do
And look yr. life the way you love
But will you remember one thing for me
I will always love you
I will always love you

We Dance lyrics - Cat Power

There are no castrations here
In a chair you will be with me

We dance, we dance
No-one will dance
With us

Jump, jump, jump, sing ...

They got some brazilian nuts
For your engagements
Check that expiration date, man
It's later than you think

You can enjoy yourself
I can enjoy myself
You can enjoy yourself
I can enjoy myself

Maybe we could dance together
Maybe we could dance together
But you know no-one will dance with us
You know no-one dares to dance with us

This time i see you
There will be
Fine times for ever
And you'll never get lost

Johnny's Got A Gun lyrics - cat power

Crush the resistance before it's begun
Sounds of voices you don't have to confront
Your hands upon a hero
Becoming a man
??
Better watch out
'Cause johnny's got a gun

Ooh get all the armies
Get all the arms
Get all the armories
The harbour's blocated
The streets barricated
Every thought is under lock and key
There's an ideal rising that you can't protect
From the same poor souls you say you protect
There's a fire of burning hatred in every mother's son
Better watch out because johnny's got a gun

Anchored your war ships
Claimed all the air-strips
Readied the seeds of decay
Stolen youth to fill your troups
Keeping rebellion at bay
The fathers before you now lie in the graves
Being remembered before it's too late
And the sons you call rebels becoming one
Better watch out because johnny's got a gun

The hour's upon you
The past will soon haunt you
Yesterday becomes today
The helpless the hopeless
The lost ones the homeless
The weak can't afford to be brave
There's only so much a poor man can take
Before he no longer fears making mistakes
Dying's the answer
The dying be done
Better watch out because johnny's got a gun

Come from the country, come from the country
Come from the country, come from the country
The city and shore
They come from the wind and the rain
They come from the fires whose ashes are cold
They come from the desert snow
They feel they'll be dying but more than that fear
The cries of oppression that no-one can hear
To every last rebel
Surrender's all wrong
'Cause johnny's got a gun

Clear The Room lyrics - cat power

Out of tune
It's no ideal
Cannot prove
But I can squeal

Stick into
Frozen meal
Touching you
Magnetic field

Take the loo
Bruise the fruit
Forget what to say
Call your bluff
Get away

Clear the room
Watch them reeling
Sex is soon
But first the feeling

Out of tune
It's so ideal
Clear the room
And watch them real

Take the loo
Bruise the fruit
Forget what to say
Call your bluff
Get away

Schizophrenia's Weighted Me Down lyrics - Cat Power

Weighted down by possessions
Weighted down by the gun
Waited down by the river for you to come

And who socks were you darning, poor darling
While I was away, away too long
I went away to see an old friend of mine
Sister came over and knew she was out of her mind
She says jesus has a twin who don't know nothing about sin
She was half crazy and out of her mind

Weighted down by possessions
Weighted down with a gun
Waiting down by the river for you to come

Her light eyes were dancing she is insane
Her brother says she's just a bitch on a golden chain
She keeps coming closer saying
I can feel it in my bones, schizophrenia is taking me home

Weighted down by possessions
I'm weighted down with my gun
I'm waiting down by the river for you to come.

album: "Moon Pix" (1998)

American Flag lyrics - Cat Power

My friend
Sits at the drum
His magic hand
Feels nothing but
Time
Nothing but time

My old friend
Sits at the drum
His magic mind
Doesn't feel anything
American Flag is behind
If I could stand
To be less difficult

My new friend
Plays drums all the time
Her magic heart
Feels everything
She plays the difficult parts and I play
Difficult

She goes shoop shoop eh doop shoop eh doop
Shoop eh doop eh doop eh doop
We go shoop shoop eh doop shoop eh doop shoop eh
Doop eh doop

If I could stand
To be less difficult

He Turns Down lyrics - Cat Power

Have you ever seen the face
You know the one i'm talking about
Have you ever been to that place
You know i'm not supposed to say

Have you ever seen the face
You know the one i'm talking about
Have you ever been to that place
You know the one i'm not supposed to say

Holding on for something have you ever held on
Holding on for someone
Feels like holding on too long
Have you ever held on

It's not me I am pretending
I'm not saved he turned me down
He turns down

It is so nice to meet you
Who's gonna look at for you
It's not me, I am pretending
I'm not saved he turned me down
He turns down

Have you ever seen the face
You know the one i'm talking about
Have you ever been to that place
You know the one i'm not supposed to say

Holding on for something
Have you ever held on
Holding on for someone
Feels like holding on too long
Have you ever held on

It's not me I am pretending
I'm not saved he turned me down
He turns down

No Sense lyrics - Cat Power

Do you remember
Do you remember
That night at context
Making up shit
Like we were animals

We made no sense
No sense
We had no sex

Can you see, can you see, can you see
Can you see, can you see, can you see
The moon is so hollow
What's the use
When I can see right through you
What's the use

All the hearts that touch your cheek
How they jump they move they embarrass
All the hearts that touch your cheek
How they jump they move they embarrass
They make no sense, no sense, no sense
No sense, we had no sex

Say lyrics - Cat power


Learn to say the same thing
Let us hold fast to sayin the same thing
I hope all is well with you
I wish the best for you
When no one is around love will always love you

Learn to say the same thing
What defeats people is a double confession
One time they will confess one thing
And the next they will confess something else
Talk to them they will say

Learn to say the same thing
Let us hold fast to saying the same thing
Never give up no, never give up
If you're looking for something easy
You might as well give it up
Never give up no, never give up
If you're looking for something easy
You might as well give it up

One time they will confess one thing
And the next they will confess the next
Talk to them they will say

Learn to say the same thing
Let us hold fast to saying the same thing

Metal Heart lyrics - Cat Power

Losing the star without a sky
Losing the reasons why
You're losing the calling that you've been faking
And I'm not kidding

It's damned if you don't and it's damned if you do
Be true, 'cause they'll lock you up in a sad, sad zoo
Oh, hidy-hidy-hiding, whatcha trying to prove?
By hidy-hidy-hiding
You're not worth a thing

Sew your fortunes on a string
And hold them up to light
Blue smoke will take
A very violent flight
And you will be changed and everything
And you will be
In a very sad, sad zoo

I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see you
How selfish of you
To believe in the meaning of all the bad dreaming

Metal heart, you're not hiding
Metal heart, you're not worth a thing

Metal heart, you're not hiding
Metal heart, you're not worth a thing

Back Of Your Head lyrics - Cat Power

Big monster
Big monster lover
A bigger pusher over
Stands alone in most walks of life
Walks alone in most walks in life

See you looking through me
Like you've unzipped the zipper
You hold the big picture so well
Can't you see that we're going to hell

Couldn't park that fucking car
Couldn't part from you
Saw the back of your sweet mother's head
Now I know that she thinks I am dead

Burnt flavor you hold the big picture so well
Can't you see that we're going to hell

Big monster lover
A bigger pusher over
Stands alone in most walks of life
Walks alone in most walks in life

Moonshiner lyrics - Cat Power


I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
I spent all my money on whisky and beer

I go to some hollow
And set up my holy holy still
If drinking do not kill me
Then I don't know what will

I go to some bar room
And drink with my friends
If women and men would come to follow
To see what I might spend
God bless them handsome men
I wish they was mine

Their breath is as sweet as
The dew on the holy holy vine

You're already in hell, you're already in hell
I wish we could go to hell

When the bottle gets empty
Then life ain't worth the drown

You May Know Him lyrics - Cat Power

Oh Lord heaven is the name that you sent me
Oh Lord heaven is the name that you gave him
And then he came to life and he lived
All others strange because who could of thought
That you meant so much to me

Oh Lord heaven is the name that you gave him
Surprised by the rise in sin you came through over and over again
Lord heaven is the place that you sent him

And you may know him
And you may know him only you
Lord i've never doubted for an instant
If we did what you say
And we do it everyday
If we did what you say
And we do it everyday

Lord if heaven is the place he believed in it's all you can do
Oh Lord heaven is the name that you sent me
Oh Lord surprised by the rise in sin you came through
You came through

Colors And The Kids lyrics - Cat Power

It must be the colors
And the kids
That keep me alive
'Cause the music is boring me to death

It must just be the colors
And the kids that keep me alive
'Cause I wanna go ride away
To a January night
Built a shack with an old friend
He was someone I could learn from
Someone I could become

Will you meet me down
On a sandy beach
We can roll up our jeans
So the tide won't get us below the knees

Yellow hair
You are a funny bear
Yellow hair
You are such a funny bear
Slender fingers
Would hold me slender limbs would hold me
And you could say my name
Like you knew my name

I could stay here
Become someone different
I could stay here
Become someone better

It's so hard to go in the city
'Cause you wanna say hello to everybody
It's so hard to go into the city
'Cause you wanna say hey I love you to everybody
When we were teenagers we wanted to be the sky
Now all we wanna do is go to red places
And try to stay outta hell

It must be the colors
And the kids
That keep me alive
'Cause the music is boring me to death

it must just be the colors
And it must just be the kids
That keep me alive on this January night.

Yellow hair
You are a funny bear
Yellow hair
You are such a funny bear

Cross Bones Style lyrics - Cat Power

Oh how time flies
With crystal clear eyes
And cold as cold
When you're ending with diamond eyes

Oh come child
In a cross bones style
Oh come child
Come and rescue me

Cause you have seen some unbelievable things

Hater I have your diamonds
And still...

Cause you have seen some unbelievable things

Hater I have your diamonds

Oh come child
In a cross bones style
Oh come child
come and rescue me

Cause you have seen some unbelievable things

Hater I have your diamonds
And still, so still...

Oh how time flies
With crystal eyes
And cold as cold
When you're ending with diamond eyes

Oh come child
In a cross bones style
Oh come child
Come and rescue me

Cause you have seen some unbelievable things

Peking Saint lyrics - Cat Power

In peking
There is a son who
Is much greater
Than you want to be

Carnival arms have
A medical wonder
Who would of guessed that
It was not a real body part

In peking
There is a mother
Who is laden
With who she has to be

Carnival arms have
A medical wonder
Who would of guessed that
It was not a real body part

In peking there is someone who
Is who they should exactly be.

Sea Of Love lyrics - Cat Power

(originally by Phil Phillips)

Come with me my love
To the sea
The sea of love
I want to tell you
How much I love you

Do you remember
When we met?
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you
How much I love you

Come with me my love
To the sea
The sea of love
I want to tell you
How much I love you
