Cat Power - King Rides By

If time had a place
And space for your past
Like a little novel
You wanted to read again and again
Would I be in your novel?
Would I begin and end in it?

If I had a place
And space for your little boy eyes
Could you really believe?
I certainly dare you
I do not want to scare you
Anymore

Oh, what a fuss when the king rides by
Oh, what a fuss when the king rides
Straight through my heart
Straight through my life

Need your love more than you'll ever know

A light kiss, the touch of your han
A million things I will never understand
Oh, what a fuss when the king trades in
Oh, what a fuss when the king trades

All of my love
For someone else's hand
Need your love more than you'll ever know

You don't miss your water
You don't miss your water
'Til your well is gone

Cat Power - Water & Air

I was dragged out by the shore man
A very poor man
A very nice man
A family man

My lover drifted down the river,
Below the dark water
The devil all around

Yesterday on the street,
Someone called out your name
Someone thought that you were me

Last night there was a party
I could not go
I walked around it
I thought about it
All night long

Today there's a newspaper
About you and me
And the day we were married,
The same day

The same day they fell in love
The same day they died in love

I did not want you to die alone

Rusty river run down
Run, run as fast as you can, oh, run
Rusty river run ragged
And drag my lover's self back to me
I'll meet him there:
Water and air

Oh, to be at the bottom of a river,
Below the dark water,
The devil all around,
The devil all around

Cat Power - Nude As The News

I still have a flame gun
For the cute cute cute ones

And I saw your hand
With a loose grip
On a tight ship

I still have a flame gun
For the cute ones
To burn out all your tricks
And I saw your hand
With a loose grip
On a very tight ship

And I know
That in the cold light
There's a very big man
There's a very big man
Leading us into
Temptation

Jackson, Jesse, I've got a son in me
Jackson, Jesse, I've got a son in me

And he's related to you
He's related to you
He is waiting to meet you

He's related to you
He's related to you
He is dying to meet you

Backhand, role reversal
Where is someone
Backhand, reversible roles
I know there's someone

I still have a flame gun
For the cute ones
To burn out all your tricks
And I saw your hand
With a loose grip
On such a tight ship

And I know that in the cold light
Is a very big man
Leading us into
Temptation

Jackson, Jesse, I've got a son in me
Jackson, Jesse, I've got the son in me

And he's related to you
He's related to you
He is waiting to meet you

He's related to you
He's related to you
He is dying to meet you

He's related to you, he's related to you
He's related to you, he's nude as the news

Nude as the news, nude as the news, nude as the news
All over, all over, all over, all over, all over, all over, all over you

Cat Power - What Would The Community Think

My God what would the community think
You are so beautiful, you are so beautiful

All the things that people do in winter
They all melt down in summer
Things I never should say
On a very hot day

Been crying in my eyes

Vacation, vacation, vacation, vacation...

My God what would the community think
You are so beautiful, you are so beautiful
