Julian Cope - Shot Down lyrics

I keep my love in a little brown bag Far away from the thrill of the world Come live with me upon the shore And look for a simple girl Tell me that you're waiting for An all-consuming love Let down my soul in misery You know that we push through You know that we were all shot down from heaven above Keep the "way out" sign as a welcome sign It's not rightfully mine but it'll do Come sit with me on a battle train That's strictly built for you Tell me you went missing in A drunken act of war Let me pull down your uniform You know that if we push through You know that we were all shot down from heaven above Tell me you went missing in A drunken act of war Let me pull down your uniform You know that we were all shot down from heaven above This old world lies helpless on its side My eyes click like fingers where you used to lie On my cross I beg and cry a million mouths Birth quakes and helpless on the floor Strained faces press against my window Cannons fire and all my children run to you Fires and fires all down my spine all down to you Turn that 'round and let it fall I keep my love in a little brown bag Far away from the thrill of the world Come live with me upon the shore And look for a simple girl Tell me that you're waiting for An all-consuming love Let down my soul in misery You know that we push through You know that we were all shot down from heaven above
