Dumb Europe Lyrics - Singles - The Birthday Party

on this European night out on the brink 

the cafes and the bars still stink 

the air is much too thick for seeing 

but not thick enough for leaning 

I leave in a catatonic crawl 

and if I die tonight then throw me in 

some bleak teutonic hole 

six feet under with a snap-frozen soul 

and really we could all just die of shame 

dumb Europe, dumb Europe, dumb Europe.

oh the Utopian night on the brink 

Mama's face staring up at me from the bottom of the sink 

witness my trail of destruction 

trying to leave this drinking place 

my feet are magnetised for furniture 

the floor's attracted to my face 

and if I die tonight 

sell me as some pre-historic bone 

a lump of junk-souvenir for Jap 

to fob off on his friends back home 

the money-dance... 

I find it hard to cope with days like this. pass the bottle etc. 

dumb Europe, dumb Europe, dumb Europe.

and really we could all just die of shame 

dumb Europe, dumb Europe, dumb Europe.
