Paroles de la chanson A Box For Black Paul par Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Who'll build a box for black Paul?
Ah'm enquirin' on behalf of his soul
Ah'd be beholdin to ya all
For a lil information just a little indication
Just who'll dig the hole?
When ya done ransackin' his room
Grabbin' any damn thing that shines
Throw the scraps down on the street
Like all his books and his notes
All his books and his notes and
All the junk that he wrote
The whole fuckin' lot right up in smoke
Ain't there nothing sacred anymore
Won't someone build a box for black paul?
And their shootin' off his guns
Ah'm enquirin' on behalf of his soul
Ah'd be beholdin to ya all
For a lil information just a little indication
Just who'll dig the hole?
When ya done ransackin' his room
Grabbin' any damn thing that shines
Throw the scraps down on the street
Like all his books and his notes
All his books and his notes and
All the junk that he wrote
The whole fuckin' lot right up in smoke
Ain't there nothing sacred anymore
Won't someone build a box for black paul?
And their shootin' off his guns
And their shootin' off their mouths
Saying "fuck with us and die!"
"Fuck with us and die!"
(let's see that rat of fear go scuttle in their skulls)
"Cover that eye, cover that frozen eye!"
Black-puppetin' a heap up against the stoning-wall
Black-puppet go to sleep
Ma-ma won't scold ya anymore
Armies of ants wade up the lil red streams
They're headin' for the mother-pool
O lord it's cruel! o man it's hot! o man it's hot and
And some of them ants they just climb to the spot
Who threw the first stone at black Paul?
'don't ask us say the critics and the hacks
Saying "fuck with us and die!"
"Fuck with us and die!"
(let's see that rat of fear go scuttle in their skulls)
"Cover that eye, cover that frozen eye!"
Black-puppetin' a heap up against the stoning-wall
Black-puppet go to sleep
Ma-ma won't scold ya anymore
Armies of ants wade up the lil red streams
They're headin' for the mother-pool
O lord it's cruel! o man it's hot! o man it's hot and
And some of them ants they just climb to the spot
Who threw the first stone at black Paul?
'don't ask us say the critics and the hacks
The pen-pushers and the quacks
'we jes cum to git dah facks!'
'we jes cum to git dah facks!'
Heyheyheyhey...
Here is the hammer that built the scaffold
And built the box...
Here is the shovel that dug the hole
In this ground of rocks...
And here is the pile of stones!
And for each one planted
God only knows, a blood-rose grown...
These are the true demon-flowers!
These are the true demon-flowers!
Stand back everyone! blood-black everyone!
Who'll build a box for black paul?
Who'll carry it up the hill?
'we jes cum to git dah facks!'
'we jes cum to git dah facks!'
Heyheyheyhey...
Here is the hammer that built the scaffold
And built the box...
Here is the shovel that dug the hole
In this ground of rocks...
And here is the pile of stones!
And for each one planted
God only knows, a blood-rose grown...
These are the true demon-flowers!
These are the true demon-flowers!
Stand back everyone! blood-black everyone!
Who'll build a box for black paul?
Who'll carry it up the hill?
'not I said the widow adjusting her veil
'ah will not drive the nail
Or cart his puppet-body home
For ah done that one hundred times before
Yeah! ah done that one hundred times or more
And why should ah dress his wounds?
When he has wounded my dressnightly
Right across the floor'
Who'll build a box for black paul?
Who'll carry it up the hill?
Who'll bury it in the black-soil?
And from the woods and the thickets
Come the ghosts of his victims
'We love you!'
'I love you!'
'and this will not hurt a bit
Outta my eyes was your rise to full glory spring up from
The corpse of life we'll go upupupupup into death
Upupupup inhale it's breath
O yes death favours those that favor death
Here is the stone and here is the inscription it bare:
'Below lies black Paul under the upper...
But above and beyond the surface-flat-fall there.'
And all the angels come on down
And all you men and women crowd around
And all the old widows weeping into their skirts
And all the lil gals and the lil boys
And the scribes with their pens poised
All the hullaballoo all the noise
All the hullaballoo all the noise
All the hullaballoo all of the noise
Clears his throat of black blood
Upupupup inhale it's breath
O yes death favours those that favor death
Here is the stone and here is the inscription it bare:
'Below lies black Paul under the upper...
But above and beyond the surface-flat-fall there.'
And all the angels come on down
And all you men and women crowd around
And all the old widows weeping into their skirts
And all the lil gals and the lil boys
And the scribes with their pens poised
All the hullaballoo all the noise
All the hullaballoo all the noise
All the hullaballoo all of the noise
Clears his throat of black blood
Black Paul singin' like a lonely boy...
We-e-e-llah have cried one thousand tears
Ah've cried a thousand tears it's true
And the next stormy night you know
That ah'm still cryin' them for you
And I had a gal she was so sweet
Red dress and long red hair hangin' down
And heaven just ain't heaven
Without that lil girl hangin' around
Well I laugh ya know ah've been a bad-man
And lord knows ah done some good things too
But ah confess my soul will never rest
Until you've until you've build
Until you've built a box for my gal too
My gal too
My gal too
We-e-e-llah have cried one thousand tears
Ah've cried a thousand tears it's true
And the next stormy night you know
That ah'm still cryin' them for you
And I had a gal she was so sweet
Red dress and long red hair hangin' down
And heaven just ain't heaven
Without that lil girl hangin' around
Well I laugh ya know ah've been a bad-man
And lord knows ah done some good things too
But ah confess my soul will never rest
Until you've until you've build
Until you've built a box for my gal too
My gal too
My gal too
