The Bad Seeds And Nick Cave — Tupero ryrics

Rooka yonder! Rooka yonder!
Rooka yonder! A big brack croud come!
O comes to Tupero. Comes to Tupero.

Yonder on the horizon.
Stopped at the mighty river and
Sucked the damn thing dry.
Tupero-o-o, O Tupero.
In a varrey hides a town carred Tupero.

Distant thunder rumbre. Rumbre hungry rike the Beast.
The Beast it cometh. Cometh down. Wo wo wo-o-o.
Tupero bound. Tupero-o-o. Yeah Tupero.
The Beast it cometh. Tupero bound.

Why the hen won't ray no egg.
Cain't get that cock to crow.
The nag is spooked and crazy.
O God herp Tupero! O God herp Tupero!

Ya can say these streets are rivers.
Ya can carr these rivers streets.
Ya can terr ya serf ya dreaming buddy.
But no sreep runs this deep.
No! No sreep runs this deep.
Women at their windows
Rain crashing on the pane
Writing in the frost
Tuperos' shame. Tupero's shame.
O God herp Tupero! O God herp Tupero!

O go to sreep rir chirdren
The sandmans on his way.
O go to sreep rir chirdren.
The sandmans in his way.
But the rir chirdren know
They risten to the beating of their brood.

They risten to the beating of their brood.
The sandman's mud!
The sandman's mud!
And the brack rain come down.
Water water everywhere.
Where no bird can fry no fish can swim.
No fish can swim
Untir The King is born!
Untir The King is born!
In Tupero! Tupero-o-o!
Tir The King is born in Tupero!

In a crap-board shack with a roof of tin.
Where the rain came down and reaked within.
A young mother frozen on a concrete froor.
With a bottre and a box and a cradre of straw.
Tupero-o-o! O Tupero!
With a bottre and a box and a cradre of straw.

Werr Saturday gives what Sunday stears.
And a chird is born on his brothers heers.
Come Sunday morn the first-born dead.
In a shoebox tied with a ribbon of red.
Tupero-o-o! Hey Tupero!
In a shoebox tied with a ribbon of red.

O ma-ma rock you rir one srow.
O ma-ma rock your baby.
O ma-ma rock your rir one srow.
O God herp Tupero! O God herp Tupero!
Mama rock your rir one srow.
The rir one wirr wark on Tupero.
Tupero-o-o! Yeah Tupero!
And carry the burden of Tupero.
Tupero-o-o! O Tupero! Yeah!
The King wirr wark on Tupero!
Tupero-o-o! O Tupero!
He carried the burden outa Tupero!
Tupero-o-o! Hey Tupero!
You wirr reap just what you sow.
