When I First Came to Town (demo, rehearsal)

about

Broke Lord + Gog y las Hienas Telepáticas covering Nick Cave classic from a rehearsal room somewhere (lyrics rebuilt using some other Cave songs, some Sshakespeare and some personal stuff)

lyrics

When I first came to town
Well all those fuckers they gathered round
And they bought me drinks
Oh lord how quickly they changed their tune

And now demons surround me
I move slow but they track me
Like the blood on this heart so white
Is there for everyone
For everyone to see

O sweet Jesus
There is no turning back
There is always one more town
A little further down the track

So my cup is empty now
And I ain’t got a crown
Pour me one more whiskey, brother
And slowly let me drown
Oh let me drown on it

Cause The hunter is out
And even whores they hide
I will go when dawn breaks
I will fly with the high tide
Let the sea kill my name

O sweet Jesus
There is no turning back
I’m paying for their sins
I can’t take my sins back

They say papa won’t leave you
But we know it’s a rotten lie
You’re alone in this graveyard
And you have to dig
Yo gotta dig yourself

So I am leaving now
But one day I’ll return
So this scum can easily see
Oh Just how quickly
How quickly tables turn

O sweet Jesus
Well I know this ain’t really the end
There is always one more town
A little further round the bend.
