The Birthday Party – Just You And Me lyrics

Album: Prayers on Fire

first: I tried to kill it with a hammer
thought that I could lose
the head
sure! we've eaten off the silver
(when even food was against us)
and then I tried to kill it in the bed
second: I gagged it with a pillow
but awoke the nuns inside
my head
they pounded their goddy-goddy fists
(from the inside - so from the outside)
I got good: I stuck it. dead
thirdly: I put my lips upon it
and blew a frost across
its flat
I wrote upon its outside-surface
"tonite we're on the outside-surface"
just you and me girl: you and me and the fat
