This Story Must Be Told Lyrics - Dance Of The Headless Bourgeoisie - Nomeansno

He pushed her in the alley, and he tried to lay her low 

He grabbed her in the dark, this story must be told 

She looked him in the eye and his blood ran cold 

She said, I know a little story, and this story must be told." 

But it's lies, lies, we never heard about it 

Lies, lies, and we don't want to know 

Lies, lies, we'll never listen 

You're a dirty little liar and we don't want to know 

His guts were in a knot but her voice it would not stop 

She shattered with her chatter all his dreams and all his thoughts 

She licked him with her tongue and she tore him with her claws 

He beat her and he begged her but he could not make her stop 

Nine times she bellyed over him, nine times in the foam she rose 

She ripped away his soul like he ripped away her clothes 

She said, I know a little story and this story must be told." 

He tried to hide, he wandered down the road 

He threw away everything that he owned, still he could not bear the load 

He grabbed me when I met him and my blood it ran cold 

He said, "I know a little story, and this story must be told." 

But it's lies, lies, we never heard about it 

Lies, lies, and we don't wannt to know 

Lies, lies, we'll never listen 

You're a dirty little liar and we don't want to know 

He rolled his eyes, he laughed and he cried, he said I'd kill myself if I was still alive 

He reamed me out with a tongue like sand, cursing in a language that nobody understands 

"There she blows!" he turned and he cried, pointing to the centre of an empty sky 

There she is, my Lady true! Her laughter cuts my heart in two! 

Her eyes are blank, her face is stone! Leave me alone! Leave me alone! 

She shattered with her chatter all my dreams and all my thoughts 

She licked me with her tongue and she tore me with her claws 

She ripped away my soul like I ripped away her clothes 

She said, I know a little story and this story must be told. 

In the light I see, nothing left of me, when the dankness falls, I will see it all
