Nick Cave - Albert Goes West lyrics

rate me

Albert he goes west, he crosses the vast indifferent deserts of Arizona, oh yeah

He had a psychotic episode on a dude ranch that involved a bottle of ammonia

Henry, he went south and lost his way deep in the weeping forest of the Vulva

It grew so warm, it grew so slick, he ended up in a bungalow sucking a revolver

The light upon your rainy streets offers many reflections

I won't be hold responsible for my actions

Bobby, he goes north and he goes east, then over to New Hampshire

Bobby is a cautious man, he walked into a Concord dive to drink a beer

Mhm

Do you wanna dance?

Do you wanna move?

Do you wanna dance?

Do you wanna groove?

I said the world is full of endless abstractions

And I won't be held responsible for my actions

Me, I ain't going anywhere, just sit and watch the sun come up, I like it here

I watch the people go ticking past, go hey hey hey, you know I gotta say I like it here

All right

Sha la-la-la, sha la-la-la, sha la-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la, sha la-la-la, sha la-la-la-la-la-la
