Nico's Children |
| Baby I’ve been waiting here for you |
| In the housing benefit queue |
| I’ve been waiting for the light |
| That’s set to end us all |
| I’ve been thinking |
| What these hands could do |
| Let loose upon you |
| Set free inside you |
| Honey, undress me for the last time |
| Put me to sleep in the daytime |
| Tonight you’re ugly and I’m worse |
| But we’re both victims of this thirst |
| When the sunlight turns to snow |
| When these lights are turned down low |
| It won’t be poetry |
| Just poverty |
| Like so |
| Nico’s children |
| Follow me like flies |
| Needlepoint arms |
| And nothing in their eyes |
| Come home to me early |
| Say that you’ll save me |
| So sunny and dirty |
| Oh swear you won’t spare me |
| The last in a line of beautiful mistakes |
| Together we’d never make it |
| Straight out of here |
| See I was never impressed |
| By their motives or their dress |
| But when the faith it turns to proof |
| In this the deepest heart of you |
| It’s not salvation, just desperation |
| My love, we’ve been lied to before |
| We’ll find the reasons, but never the cause |
| And in these days between stations |
| Yes, we’ll be free from their questions |
| Yeah, I was free to be |
| Whatever it was you wanted me to be |
| When the charity comes round |
| When you’re safe yet naked |
| In the crowd |
| It won’t be kindness |
| Just blindness |
| Like so |
| Nico’s children |
| Follow me like flies |
| Needlepoint arms |
| And nothing in their eyes |
| Come home to me early |
| Say that you’ll save me |
| So sunny and dirty |
| Oh swear you won’t spare me |
| The last in a line of beautiful mistakes |
| Together we’d never make it |
| Straight out of here |
