End Of Time lyrics - Cocorosie

This is the end of time
Lets all hug and say goodbye
This is the end of time
We are all heavenward and weary

The babes
The Guns
The waste
The punks
I don’t need no human friends
The cars
The wars
The shopping malls
I can leave you all behind
And I will chase my brother’s shadow
Leave my own hung in the closet
The stars that I could hardly see
I know you are looking down at me

And Jesus by the windier light
You always protected me
From fathers arm, his wicked laugh
It echoes through the canyon
The earth will spit us out one day
Like broken angels cast away
Lets just hug and say goodbye
We are all heavenwards and weary

This is the end of time
Lets all hug and say goodbye
This is the end of time
We are all heavenward and weary

When love will come into our hearts
On that final day where lights
Mets us at the edge of time
This will not be televised
The televisions all have died
Filled with water-cyanide
Angeles, winged ones will survive
We are all blind smoke in our eyes
So lets just hug and say goodbye
We are all heavenwards and weary

This is the end of time
Lets all hug and say goodbye
This is the end of time
We are all heavenward and weary

Harmless Monster lyrics - Cocorosie

I used to be the son or the daughter of
The last name Charlotte
Nows I'm humbug and I'm harlot
Harmless monster with flowers in your hair
By the roadside, in the nighttime
I'm hardly even there
A very sudden change of color
It's your eyes who deceive you
I was an angel, someone's sweet thing
With flowers in my hair
Round the corner, flash of silver
And it's alright to recognize me
It's alright to recognize me
Call out my nameless
It's alright to recognize me, call out my nameless
It's alright to recognize me, call out my nameless
It's alright to recognize me, call out my nameless
It's alright to recognize me, call out my nameless

Graveless diggress... that's me

Gravediggress lyrics - Cocorosie

Gravedigress dig me a hole I can bury
All of my love and all of my holy

Gravedigress dig me a hole I can bury
All of my love and all of my holy
All of my love and all of my holy

Gravedigress dig me a hole I can bury
All of my love and all of my holy
All of my love and all of my holy

Old gravediggress by the dried out brook
Whose babble turns to gravel
And my company too
I used to watch the butterflies,
Pretend that its spring
When December can't remember
Not a damn cold thing

Old gravedigger-r by the burnt out tree
Who held the hive a murmur
But no more bees
I used to hear the wind
Made speak and sing the leaves
Seems so long I've felt but a shy and tender breeze

Gravedigress dig me a hole I can bury
All of my love and all of my holy
Gravedigress dig me a hole I can bury
All of my love and all of my holy

Old scarecrow wounded at the knee
Lost your button eyes
And most of your stuffing
Hay for a heart
And hay for a brain
If your momma was sweeter then you might be sane

Gravedigress dig me a hole I can bury
All of my love and all of my holy

Far Away lyrics - Cocorosie

Would you go
If they came?
With open arms,
Far away

Maybe
RIP humans
Tears for animals
Animals, animals and nature
Did you ever feel an alien?
Woods
RIP your blood type
Is as delicate as night
Imagine my father
Did feel, feel, feel, feel me
I was RIP
RIP

Would you go
If they came?
Open arms,
Far away

Would you go
If they came?
Open arms,
Far away

My love letters...

My father did me nature
Nature, nature, nature
I was one year past three
Maybe nature

Roots Of My Hair lyrics - Cocorosie

Wet is my whistle
Wandering wayward
Trouser is caught in a thorny bramble
Sun soon be slipping
Down spine of the meadow
Swamp candle flower
A watery fellow
The monarch's my right hand
Left is the sparrow
Twilight blue my bone and marrow
The river's path is old and narrow
First evening star
To comfort the scarecrow

Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere
Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere

Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses

Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere
Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere...

Marveling over dead branches
Marveling over dead branches
Into the rosy atmosphere
Into the rosy atmosphere

Villain lyrics - Cocorosie

Give rise to the villain
Give rise to the head of
Deprived of the protector
And shield from the weather

My sister, she used goat's blood
To conceal her ravaged body
But, I was gifted with my uncle Freddy's baby
Froze in time
I could hide
Bloated belly, baby inside

Give rise to the villain
Give rise to the head of
Deprived of the protector
And shield from the weather
[x2]

What happened to my life
All this ain't right
I should have taken it myself
With uncle Freddy's knife
Cause the grave is very suiting
For a bloodless daughter bride

Give rise to the villain
Give rise to the head of
Deprived of the protector
And shield from the weather
[x4]

Poison lyrics - Cocorosie

Voodoo spell
Ocean morgue
Like a whale
Swallows you whole
Dentless
Merciless
Dentless

Merciless dictator
She sleighs the necks of giraffes
Merciless dictator
She sleeps on pillows made of zebra skin
Oh, squakin', talkin' blasted pigeon
Parrot Portuguese
Black icky tongue
And the purple clouds,
Dry, like painted
Desert flowers

Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison
Her tears are
Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison
Her tears are

Dry, like painted
Desert flowers

Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison
Her tears are
Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison
Her tears are

Watch out for the snakes
(Poison, her tears are poison)
Watch out for the velvet cross
(Her tears are poison)
Watch out for the panthers
(Her tears are)
Leaping from her spit, oh
[x2]

Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison
Her tears are
Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison
Her tears are
Poison, her tears are poison
Her tears are poison

Devil's Island lyrics - Cocorosie

Who wants to get their head chopped off on Devil's Island?!
Who wants to lie down on the softest bed in the universe and die!?!
Who wants to be a beer and make someone drunk?!

Oh lord
Please tell me
I only have eyes
For you
I only have eyes for you
Oh lord please tell me
You're watching me too
I only have eyes for you
Oh lord please tell me
You're watching me too

Who wants to be a crystal and get found some day?!
Who wants to get their head chopped off on Devil's Island?!
Who wants to lay down on the softest bed in the universe and die?!

This is the end of time

"Grey Oceans" (2010)

Trinity's Crying lyrics - Cocorosie

I love you
I cried on your mother's shoulder
Like a broken hearted soldier
She knew and I knew
What all the tears were for
Weary exhausted flames of light
Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying

Smokey Taboo lyrics - Cocorosie

They call her smokey taboo
I got your name tattooed
High like a helium balloon
Midnight to noon
I'm a desert child
And mountains make me nauseous
I like to look up wild at an infinite sky
Twinkling with diamonds
It's true I get depressed in fancy hotel rooms
Undressed with nothing to flaunt but my loneliness
Thinking of the night song of your hair
Premature as evening falls
It calls to me
Interrupted by the sirens in the street

Somedays you're like an anchor on my heart
They say that stolen water tastes sweet
More like rotten milk and rancid meat to me
I prefers when it is free
Like looking at the stars
Don't need no fancy cars
When we first
Our kisses sparked
Yeah I'm afraid of sharks
But not the dark

Hopscotch lyrics - Cocorosie

"I got a hopscotch tear drop ready to drop"
If the sun decides to rise
Without its colors in your eyes
It matters not a heart of mine
Prefers the darkness
A hopscotch tear drop ready to drop

Undertaker lyrics - Cocorosie

u ne la nv i u me tsi
i go ga gv he i
hna quo tso sv wi yu lo se
i ga gu yv ho nv

Under what spell the guiding light
Betook the undertaker
Under whose gaze did fall such evil blunder
Characters of flaming eyes
Eager to burn the wooden castle
Eager to wet the paper heart of children birds
The aching starlet
The singing sinew
The whining ghost
Brutal wind of snowy harlot
Chafing mine eyes
A sandpaper kiss
Bloody rosen my cheek
Purple kiss of stardust
Pink balloon of time
Candied on the inside
Baby pit bull butterfly
Do da do da do dah do dah

Grey Oceans lyrics - Cocorosie

In heaven warm souls flutter
They flutter by with rosaries
Dangling from their necks
German shepherds guide by nightfall
Little kinder
Little kinder dressed in starlight
Inside I feel like
Like I'm crying besides a tree
I'm watching myself like an old TV
I'm watching myself like an old movie on color TV
When people whisper in Portuguese
Its just as mysterious
And the stubble on his face
It hurt me when
When we fell onto each other's faces
Dawn retraces heart ached patterns across grey oceans
Windows brighten up the room
And one could cast a smooth worn lover's stone
Worn smooth from days of fertile deliberation

R.I.P. Burn Face lyrics - Cocorosie


In her mourning
In her grave
Don't you miss the way
That she brushed her heavy hair
Oh la la la la la

ACID BURNED FACE CLOWNY TEAR SMILE
She's the one who made you wild
She made you question all your answers
Made you beg for her forgiveness

BABY GIRL don't cry
Momma's gonna buy you a glass eye
And it will glimmer like starlight

She's got no reservations
Ain't got no place to be
The graveyard's in the backyard
Where the meadows used to be

Lord knows my destination
Lord hears my inner prayer
Mom'll find me by the river
Sunken with her party balloons

Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea
Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea

Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea
Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea

Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea
Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea
