Bonnie Prince Billy - Ease Down The Road (2003) by Bonnie Prince Billy (보컬) on maniadb.com

I've been with you for a fairly long time
May I call you, may I call you, may I call you mine?
And you, unknown, have been with me
May it always, may it always, may it always be

Please don't leave my side, remember I love you
None of what I have done wrong was really done against you
If you love me, and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more
To re-enforce what's also strong and all the love we have in store

By example you show me that living's alright
Stay here with me, stay here with me, stay with me tonight
And come with me when I go into the bedroom
And we'll play bride, and we'll play bride, and we'll play bride and groom

If you had not been born you know
What would I, what would I be then?
I would not have had strength to grow
And be counted, and be counted among men

Please don't leave my side, remember I love you
None of what I have done wrong was really done against you
If you love me, and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more
To re-enforce what's also strong and all the love we have in store

In the morning we'll wrestle and ruin our stomachs with coffee
Won't we be, won't we be, won't be happy
And we will rise in anger, love and ardour
Shining, shining, shimmering in love's armour

I wrote a careless love
"Love me not for I'm above
Above a cloud all flat and white
And with another love tonight"
And then a careless love
By weighty cloud above
Was ground into the floor
To loving breathe no more

Lady as I leave you
Limp on the floor
Distorting our voices
Slamming the door
I say sorry
I say bye bye
I say miss you
I say cry cry

There is grime on my face
There is crust in my eye
There is no-one in the place
But no-one said goodbye
This is how I start another day in my kingdom

There is hate in my heart
This is how my day starts
There is blood on my hands
From the murder of a man
This is how I start another day in my kingdom

And where is my queen
She's as gone as can be
She was a fine looking lady
And she liked to go down on me
And I liked to go down on her too

In Indya there's the taj
On good times there was rog
And here-ee look and see
All there is is me
This is how I start another day in my kingdom
This is how I start another day in my kingdom

There are good times to be had
Only insane's really bad
The lord and I agree
It's not too off to be
What we are
As long as we're royalty
You fuck and what's to do (you fuck!)
It's not your kingdom too

Just to see my holly home
Evil jack he walks alone
Swings a club and stinks something awful
We'll give him a painful jawful

Sarah walks a slinky strut
Very gorgeous and anxious slut
Has a love scar on her wrist
We'll give her our painful fist

Just to see my holly home
Just to see my holly home
We will live just us alone
Safely in our holly home

In come babies one, two, three
Like to bounce them on our knee
Want to stay and grow up with us
Baby stew will surely fill us

Just to see my holly home
Just to see my holly home
We will live just us alone
Safely in our holly home

Pound them down and pound them out
All the ladies scream and shout
Hide their bodies in the reeds
Shallow bed of soil and leaves

Out will grow ideas and laughter
Up will rise our earthly daughter
Water floods and all upon it
Up upon our bloody planet

Now we've ended all who'd harm us
No one left here to alarm us
And we live just us alone
Safely in our holly home

Just to see my holly home
Just to see my holly home
We will live just us alone
Safely in our holly home

Just to see my holly home
Just to see my holly home
We will live just us alone
Safely in our holly home

Eloquent, I soon retire
To nothing else I may aspire
After I've made love to you

In the dark I see you glisten
To your breath I lay and listen
After I've made love to you

In your arms I'm softly resting
Memories of you undressing
And your lips my final blessing
I never knew
The embrace that I'd been lacking
Has been found with kisses smacking
And two bodies there attacking
I and you

Baby why don't we feel guilty
Why's it seem we're doing right
When we're doing something filthy
In a rented room tonight

I think it's cause we love the now
We love forever love, and how
And my life's your love, anyway
And your life's my love, everyday

You are mine oh now forever
Think of you always wherever
After I've made love to you
After I've made love to you

I took her on a simple trip
To see her husband's family
And on the way upon her hip
Was laid my head down gently

All due respect was meant and all
The winds were in agreement
That this was answering the call
Of awkward and true feeling

A fireman here husband was
And so to give him duty
I duly tried to light a fire
Upon his rightful booty

But beauty was my treasure then
As through the hills I drove her
And taught her that another man
Could have made love to her

Strange is good if it is kept
A secret with the "lovers"
Who love there mates and love themselves
And need the love of others

Through the window I could see
The fields and clouds all passing
As in the passenger position
Eleanor was thrashing

I stopped the car we got a beer
And then eased down the road
A little guilt, and some guilt spilt
And added to our load

I took road and said goodbye
Friends go one way I went mine
I got lost then very quickly
Started shaking feeling sickly

In the lion lair, in the lion lair
Watch your own self and take care
I am outside, almost one with
All the life in the lion lair

All alone and all around
Canyon clept above the ground
There was treeless flat around me
And no evil came and found me

In the lion lair, in the lion lair
Watch your own self and take care
I am outside, almost one with
All the life in the lion lair

Stars came out in midday burning
Earth grumbled stones were churning
Colors red were rocks and sky
And powered glint infused the eye

Had himself in no time at all
Hand on shaft and gripped his ball
Wished your mouth would come down on it
Feel your lips sink warm upon it

In the lion lair, in the lion lair
Watch your own self and take care
I am outside, almost one with
All the life in the lion lair

Beast and bird they called me kin
Bathed me and they tucked me in
Laid down on the forest ground
Stars above they shone on down

In the lion lair, in the lion lair
Watch your own self and take care
I am outside, almost one with
All the life in the lion lair

In the lion lair, in the lion lair
Watch your own self and take care
I am outside, almost one with
All the life in the lion lair

Mrs. William, where is William?
Where has William go?
You know you shouldn't
Come into a place like this alone

Now if you'd like to sit here at my table, I'll abide
But it isn't usually my thing to do anothers bride
I'll sell my heart, I'll sell my brain
I'll sell my love and all my fame

My mother maybe
And my brother too
To raise the stake to pay for you
To get you from his side

And then I'll watch, keep one eye open
Halfway fearing, halfway hoping
That blackguard boy with handsome muscle
Disturb your sleep with tiny tussle

And earn by stealing Mrs. William
Mrs. William gone again
But with your eyes and with your aura
You'll never leave this place alone

I have you always, the taste of us coming
You'll make the beasties and the flora
You're part of our eternal home
Humble and bow down

Born in sheep's blood plain and simple
Washed out of my mother's temple
All around I heard them laughing
As father sheep had stood there calving

Black they were, with white eyes gleaming
Right in heaven life was seeming
Brittle wind blew snow upon me
I got blanketed all white and frosty

In my time I grew and killed them
Or out of memory I willed them
And willed in a greater history
Out of massacre and mystery

Was no longer wealthy, woolly
Nor anything I could grasp fully
Someone rush to re-inject me
God of gods, won't you protect me?

Fixed my face and marching onward
Marching running ever forward
Buildings were a bloody vessel
Edging me below the trestle

There in coal and whitened gravel
I built a shield of wooden baffle
Inside of which I raised a fire
So I could tonight retire

Everyone will tell you it's evil to be
A free-thinking pecker like bonnie old me
But I'll flex my armies and blow out my gut
And prove I'll be loved by any old slut

Look here in my wallet, it's loaded and true
And now I can leave here and go and find you

All and all is one thing today
One good effort made on its way
To take in a love and pass on a feeling
Of heart in chest slowly unpeeling

Lilly can take it with a smile and not a frown
In the room where she lives blessed I guess
She wears my favor and shows it around
And in doing so I too get blessed

Rules explode and we call her mine
And she has my baby and things are fine
She can't hold her eyes still or her voice
The way nooses hold necks still in excellent poise

Lilly can take it with a smile and not a frown
In the room where she lives blessed I guess
She wears my favor and shows it around
And in doing so I too get blessed

Jug holds a gallon and you hold my arm
And I hold a million in bottle and yarn
And gem isn't sacred when mother has breathed
You know - you told me that

A shark and a dog - now you're laughing
The dog licks the shark dry in your photographing
And I lick you dry until you're laughing
My finger is in your behind

I woke up fat and almost unhappy
But the bigger the laugh the bigger the belly
And I bellow out and the whole bed it shakes
And you smile at my laugh as it rocks you awake
