If every angel's terrible

Then why do you welcome them?

If every angel's terrible

Then why do you welcome them?

If every angel's terrible

Then why do you welcome them?

You say you'll provide the bird bath

If I provide the skin,

And bathing in the moonlight

I'm to tremble like a kitten.

If blue eyed babes

Raised as Hitler's little brides and sons

They got angelic tendencies

Like some boys tend to act like queens

If every angel's terrible

Then why do you watch her sleep?

You love to hear her sing

And wear purple eyes like rings

And the flowers have no scent

And the child's been miscarried.

If every angel's terrible

Then why do you welcome them?

If every angel's terrible

Then why do you welcome them?

If every angel's terrible

Then why do you welcome them?

You say you'll provide the bird bath

If I provide the skin,

And bathing in the moonlight

I'm to tremble like a kitten.

Oh every angel's terrible

Said Freud and Rilke are all the same

Rimbaud never paid them no mind

and Jimmy Morrison had his elevators

His elevators

He had his elevator angels.

And every angel's terrible

Why do you hide inside her

Like a child in a skirt?

The supermarket's loud and bright

And boy don't she feel warm tonight

Boy don't she feel warm tonight

Boy don't she feel warm tonight

(She sounded like an angel when she cried...)

If every angel's terrible the why do you welcome them? x4

You say you'll provide the birdbath

If I provide the skin, yeah

She sounded like an angel when she cried.
