There Is A Light Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Hey there sugar where ya gunna go? 

I'm going downtown Daddy-O 

What ya gunna do when you get there, girl? 

I'm gunna get messed up in a God-Shaped Hole 

Hey Mr Hophead, what ya gunna do? 

I'm going downtown for some bad ju-ju 

Ya going downtown too, Mr. Gigolo? 

Damn right I am, Daddy-O... 

There is a light thay shines over this city tonight 

There is a light that shines over this city tonight 

Let it shine 

O Mr High Roller where ya gunna go? 

Where the real high-rollin rollers roll real dough 

Hey Mr Killer Man what ya gunna do? 

Me and Mr Death are going downtown too 

Ain't there one God Fearing citizen about? 

They're all holed up and they ain't comin' out 

What about Mr. Preacher to forgive us our sins? 

Not that carrion crow with blood on his chin 

And Mr. Politician can't he lend a hand? 

He's too busy sucking on the guts of this town 

And what about God and this Armageddon? 

He's all blissed out, man, up in Heaven 

Ain't there nowhere to run, ain't there nowhere to go? 

(repeat line 3 more times) 

Yeah, look to the sky, Daddy-O 

There is a light that shines over this city tonight 

There is a light that shines over this city tonight 

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
