[00:00.30]作词: Nicholas Edward Cave / Warren Ellis
[00:09.666] At the turn of the century I did many things to protect myself
[00:15.921] I did many things to protect myself
[00:21.629] I made myself a needle-boy
[00:27.256] And I Hid him in the closet
[00:31.683] And I made myself a money-man
[00:37.168] And I hid him underneath the mattress
[00:42.523] I made myself a spider-child
[00:48.847] And I put him in a matchbox
[00:53.955] And I forged myself a golden statuette
[00:58.437] And I wrapped him in a hello magazine
[01:01.854] And I hid I'm in a wall safe
[01:05.942] And finally I made myself a spade-girl
[01:11.428] And I put her in a garden she'd
[01:14.677] All to protect myself, you see
[01:17.536] From the demon that was coming from the East
[01:22.322] Or from the west
[01:26.269] Then I sat on the rooftop and I waited
[01:47.817] And when at last the demon came
[01:50.899] From the East or from the West
[01:54.737] And awoke me from my sleep
[01:59.670] And awoke me to a particular point of view
[02:05.390] And the needle-boy stuck him in the eye
[02:11.170] And the money-man chocked him with coins
[02:17.195] The spider-child bit him on the ankle
[02:22.861] And the statuette crashed crashed down upon his head
[02:28.047] And the spade-girl buried him underneath the house
[02:39.941] And I danced on the rooftops
[02:45.898] And I danced on the rooftops
[02:52.021] And I danced to the western world
[02:57.900] And I danced to the western world
