Artist/Band: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Lyrics for Song: Night of the Lotus Eaters
Lyrics for Album: Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!! [2008]



Sapped and stupid I lie upon the stones and I swoons

The darlig little dandelions have done their thing and changed from suns into moons

The dragons roam the shopping malls, I hear they're gonna eat our guts

If I had the strength I might pick up my sword and make some attempt to resist



Get ready to shield yourself

Grab your sap and your heaters

Get ready to shield yourself

On the night of the lotus eaters



Mmm, don't you love my baby

Mmm, and don't you love my baby anymore



They gilded my scales, they fish-bowled me and they toured me round the old aquariums

They come in their hordes to tap at the glass, the philistines and barbarians

I like floating here, it's nice, they've hung seaweed around my hips

And I do the hula for the hungry ones and the lames all throw me tips



Get ready to shield yourself

Grab your sap and your heaters

Get ready to shield yourself

On the night of the lotus eaters



Mmm, don't you love my baby

Mmm, and don't you love my baby anymore



Get ready to shield yourself

From our catastrophic leaders

Get ready to shield yourself

Grab your sap and your heaters



On the night of the lotus eaters



Now hit the streets!



Now hit the streets!
