papa wont
[04:06.34] I went out walking the other day
[04:06.57] The heat hung wet around my neck
[04:06.83] My head it rung with screams and groans
[04:06.83] From the night I spent amongst her bones
[04:07.10] And I passed beside the mission house
[04:07.33] Where that mad old buzzard, the reverend
[04:07.57] Shrieked and flapped about life after you're dead
[04:07.57] Well, I thought about my friend, Michel
[04:07.83] How they rolled him in linoleum
[04:08.08] And they shot him in the neck
[04:08.32] A bloody halo, like a think-bubble
[04:08.32] Circling his head
[04:08.58] And I bellowed at the firmament
[04:08.58] Looks like the rains are hear to stay
[04:08.82] And the rain pissed down upon me
[04:09.07] And washed me all away
[04:09.07] Saying
[04:09.32] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:09.32] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:09.59] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:09.83] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:09.83] Well, the road is long
[04:10.07] And the road is hard
[04:10.07] And many fall by the side
[04:10.33] But Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:10.58] So there ain't no need to cry
[04:10.58] And I went on down the road
[04:10.85] He went on down the road
[04:10.85] Oh yeah, I went on down the road
[04:11.09] He went on down the road
[04:11.32] Well, the moon it looked exhausted
[04:12.57] Like something you should pity
[04:12.82] Spent an age-spotted
[04:13.07] Above the sizzling wires of the city
[04:13.33] Well, it reminded me of her face
[04:13.33] Her bleached and hungry eyes
[04:13.59] Her hair was like a curtain
[04:13.59] Falling open with the laughter
[04:13.85] And closing with the lies
[04:13.85] And the ghost of her still lingers on
[04:14.09] Though she's passed through me
[04:14.32] And is gone
[04:14.32] Well the slum dogs, they are barking
[04:14.57] The rain children on the streets
[04:14.57] And the tears that we will weep today
[04:14.84] Will all be washed away
[04:15.07] By the tears that we will weep
[04:15.07] Will weep again tomorrow
[04:15.33] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:15.33] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:15.58] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:15.58] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:15.85] For the road is long
[04:16.07] And the road is hard
[04:17.08] And many fall by the side
[04:17.34] Well, Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:17.57] So there ain't no need to cry
[04:17.57] And I went on down the road
[04:17.83] He went on down the road
[04:17.83] Oh yeah, I went on down the road
[04:18.10] He went on down the road
[04:18.10] And I came upon a little house
[04:18.58] A little house upon a hill
[04:18.82] And I entered through, and the curtain hissed
[04:19.58] Into the house with its blood-red bowels
[04:19.83] Where wet-lipped women with greasy fists
[04:19.83] Crawled the ceilings and the walls
[04:20.09] They filled me full of drink
[04:20.33] And they led me round the rooms
[04:20.33] Naked and cold and grinning
[04:20.58] Until everything went black
[04:20.58] And I came down spinning
[04:20.83] I awoke so drunk and full of rage
[04:21.07] That I could hardly speak
[04:21.07] A fag in a whale-bone corset
[04:21.82] Draping his dick across my cheek
[04:22.07] Well its into the shame
[04:22.07] And its into the guilt
[04:23.08] And its into the fucking fray
[04:23.08] And the walls ran red around me
[04:23.32] A warm arterial spray
[04:23.32] Saying
[04:23.62] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:23.62] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:23.85] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:24.08] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:24.08] Well, the night is dark
[04:24.32] And the night is deep
[04:24.32] And its jaws are open wide
[04:24.58] Yeah, well Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:24.82] So there ain't no need to cry
[04:24.82] And I went on down the road
[04:25.08] He went on down the road
[04:25.82] Oh yeah, I went on down the road
[04:25.82] He went on down the road
[04:26.09] Yeah, woah, woah
[04:26.09] It's the rainy season where I'm living
[04:26.36] Death comes leaping out of every doorway
[04:26.36] Wasting you for money, for your clothes
[04:26.61] And for your nothing
[04:26.82] Entire towns being washed away
[04:27.07] Favelas exploding on inflammable spillways
[04:27.32] Lynch-mobs, death squads, babies being born without brains
[04:27.59] The mad heat and the relentless rains
[04:27.82] Well if you stick your arm into that hole
[04:27.82] It comes out shit up to the bone
[04:28.08] And with her kisses bubbling on my lips
[04:28.08] I swiped the rain and nearly missed
[04:28.32] And then I went on down the road
[04:28.32] He went on down that road
[04:28.59] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:28.82] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:28.82] Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:29.07] Papa won't leave you, Boy
[04:29.07] Well, the road is long
[04:29.33] And the road is hard
[04:29.57] And many fall by the side
[04:30.33] Well, Papa won't leave you, Henry
[04:30.33] So there ain't no need to cry
[04:30.58] And I went on down the road
[00:00.00] He went on down the road
[00:00.00] Oh yeah, I went on down the road
[00:00.00] He went on down the road
[00:00.00] Bent beneath my heavy load
[00:00.00] Under his heavy load
[00:00.00] Yeah, I went on down that road
[00:00.00] Yeah, he went on down the road
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] Woah, woah
[00:00.00] And I went on down that road
