Hook Lyrics - Polly Jean Harvey

I was blind 

I was lame 

I was nothing 

'Till you came 

You said, "Babe 

Make you sing 

Make you feel 

Like some queen" 

Said, "I'll take you Kathleen 

To your home and mine" 

Lord, he hooked me 

Fish hook and line 

And rode in, fucking mad 

With a halo of deep black 

'Til my love made me gag 

Call him Daddy, take my hand 

Said, "I'll take you Kathleen 

To your home and mine" 

Good Lord, he hooked me 

Fish hook and line 

I'm hooked 

Oh, beautiful 

Oh, higher 

Oh, beautiful 

Now I'm blind and I'm lame 

Left with nothing but his stain 

"Daddy your maid, she can't sing 

She can't feel, she's no queen" 

Said, "I'll take you Kathleen 

To your home and mine" 

Lord, he hooked me 

Fish hook and line 

Said, "I'll take you Kathleen 

To your home and mine" 

Good Lord, he hooked me 

'Leen out of time
