Feel So Bad
Lyrics for Song: Do You Love Me? (Part 2)
Lyrics for Album: Let Love In [1994]
Onward! And Onward! And Onward I go
Where no man before could be bothered to go
Till the soles of my shoes are shot full of holes
And it's all downhill with a bullet
This ramblin' and rovin' has taken its course
I'm grazing with the dinosaurs and the dear old horses
And the city streets crack and a great hole forces
Me down with my soapbox, my pulpit
The the theatre ceiling is silver star-spangled
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle
There's a man in the theatre with girlish eyes
Who's holding my childhood to ransom
On the screen there's a death, there's a rustle of cloth
And a sickly voice calling me handsome
There's a man in the theatre with sly girlish eyes
On the screen there's an ape, a gorilla
There's a groan, there's a cough, there's a rustle of cloth
And a voice that stinks of death and vanilla
This is a secret, mauled and mangled
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle
The walls of the ceiling are painted in blood
The lights go down, the red curtains come apart
The room is full of smoke and dialogue I know by heart
And the coins in my pocket jingle-jangle
As the great screen crackled and popped
The clock of my boyhood was wound down and stopped
And my handsome little body oddly propped
And my trousers right down to my ankles
Yes, it's onward! And upward!
And I'm off to find love
Do you love me? If you do, I'm thankful
This city is an ogre squatting by the river
It gives life but it takes it away, my youth
There comes a time when you just cannot deliver
This is a fact. This is a stone cold truth.
Do you love me?
I love you, handsome
But do you love me?
Yes, I love you, you are handsome
Amongst the cogs and the wires, my youth
Vanilla breath and handsome apes with girlish eyes
Dreams that roam between truth and untruth
Memories that become monstrous lies
So onward! And Onward! And Onward I go!
Onward! And Upward! And I'm off to find love
With blue-black braclets on my wrists and ankles
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle

Do You Love Me? (Part 2)
Do You Love Me? (Part 2) appears on the 1994 album Let Love In, a pivotal release in the discography of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. During this era, the band was transitioning from their earlier, raucous post-punk sound toward a more introspective and melancholic style that would define their subsequent work. This track contributes to the album's exploration of emotional vulnerability and romantic uncertainty, hallmarks of Cave's songwriting during the mid-nineties. The recording captures the group's evolving dynamic, blending Cave's distinctive baritone with the band's increasingly nuanced arrangements. As part of a celebrated catalogue that includes later masterpieces like The Boatman's Call, this song stands as a testament to the artist's ability to craft deeply personal narratives within a rich musical landscape. |
