Super Furry Animals – Cityscape Skybaby lyrics

Album: Phantom Power

She came in smelling of cabbages
Pumpkin roots and all winters ravages
She came in around dawn
Took her coat off
Burdened down by the Russian winter
Felt the warmth of the hearth

Bathed a while naked in hot water
Wash away imminent disaster
Thinking through her today
And the murder
Of the bailiff and landowner
Felt no shame
Only gain

Cleansed the pike
Peeled all the potatoes
Beetroots ripe for bellies of gigolos
Served it up for her son and her daughter
For the last time she imagines
Reprobates lie in wait.

Bye-bye
Skybaby
Sweet vigilante
Skybaby
Bye-Bye
