The Ballad Of Melody Nelson Lyrics - Mick Harvey

Pour l'amitié, 

L'amitié entre hommes et femmes 

Impensable 

Parce que, il y a toujours 

Sous jacent 

Le désir animal 

This is the story of 

Melody Nelson 

Apart from me no one 

Ever took her in his arms 

Under her thumb 

Ice in the sun 

Oh my Melody mine 

Oh my Melody mine 

She was nothing but love 

Poor 

Melody Nelson 

Her life was more said than done 

But her days were numbered 

(?Nil?) Count fourteen falls 

Fifteen on calls 

A baby tiger was 

Melody Nelson 

Forever purring in the sun 

Just as dangerous as a child 

With a gun, shooting me down 

Oh my Melody mine 

Melody Nelson 

Still playing hurting games for fun 

As adorable as dumb 

Deaf to the sound 

To what's going down 

Down 

Down
