Dolly Bird Lyrics

Dolly Bird - Holy Barbarians

Written by:Ian Astbury

 

I stood in the morning the dirty dawn's in I'm still yawning another day

 

Scratch through the paper life's a vapour drying up it's all the same

 

I look out the window at the rain the liver bird is smiling

 

And tonight I'll be dancing once again I'm still surviving

 

My worn out shoes throw down the blues to the pavement of endless crowds

 

Yeah I'm a witness my pathetic sickness that whips me when I'm down

 

I look out the window at the rain the liver bird she's smiling

 

And tonight she'll be dancing once again dolly bird surviving

 

I am the boy that you love yeah to despise

 

I am an object you mock and criticise

 

Don't believe your eyes or lies

 

I look out the window at the rain the liver bird she's smiling

 

And tonight I'll be dancing once again dolly bird surviving

 

I look out the window at the rain the liver bird she's smiling

 

And tonight she'll be dancing once again dolly bird she's surviving

 

 

Surviving
