Nick Cave Dolls

Lyrics

[Intro] Look at his face Is this an album cover? Oh, this is a weirdo Oh, they call it Bongwater, that's the name of the band, the name of it? Yeah, you like it? Bong, Bongwater, oh yeah, I never heard of I never heard of, I never heard of that I never heard of, I never heard of that I never heard of a band, I never heard of I never heard of that, heard of a I never heard of a band, a band with, uh, with that, with that, uh With that name, no Bong, Bong, Bong, Bong, Bong, Bongwater No, Bong, Bongwater, hmm That's the name of that, the name of the band, huh? Yep The name of the band The name of the band The name, the name of the band is Bongwater, hmm Get out of my fucking bus Bye bye Bye bye *Phone noises* Disconnected, disconnected, disconnected [Verse 1] Hi Glad you called Guess what I'm doing right now? Mmm, that's right I'm walking along Hollywood Boulevard All I hear are people around me asking each other "Who's here? Who's here?" But we know there aren't any stars out here You know what I'd like right now? Mmm, that's right Chocolate cake with ice cream Mmm [Verse 2] Palm trees are swaying wildly around us And the sky grows darker and darker People are already out on the streets Some in terror, some in wonderment Most confused You and I, we watch the funnel clouds hypnotically inch toward the ground And upon touchdown turn into atomic mushroom clouds and explode Mmm A few spectators applaud Scared shitless, we duck into the Spanish Pavilion But it's remarkably unremarkable There's nothing much to do so we go downstairs where That's right Nude and lingerie-clad girls are having a Pose-a-thon [Verse 3] Guess what I do? That's right I throw caution to the wind and peel off my girdle And take my place on the red vinyl ottoman That stands in the middle of the lobby The walls are covered in full-length mirrors You have to admit the scene is pretty sexy Then I think to myself "Is it politically correct to even be here?" I mean, look what happened to Dorothy Stratten Then I decide "Oh, the hell with it, I'm horny!" [Verse 4] Just then, Jeff, the famous balding actor famous for his tattooed rebel roles And loose-fitting Italian suits walks past, sullen and intent He talks to us about, that's right All the toys he buried in his backyard So no one else will play with them He says one of his favorites is his Nick Cave doll I feel pity for the man and hope one day he'll grow hair Then I think, "Wow! They have Nick Cave dolls now? I want one!"
