John Cale Barracuda Lyrics

Barracuda Lyrics

Dark woman in the water drowning

Sinking in a funny way

Black footing full of faces floating

Mimicking our final days



The ocean will have us all

The ocean will have us all



Dark woman in a cupboard burning

Oh, what have they done

Dark woman like a feather breathing

Oh, what can be done



The ocean will have us all



Cold cost is the death of nothing

Slipping just like nothing did

Prince and the one was joking

Smoking in the summer mis



Barracuda, barracuda

Won't you lay down your life to me?

Won't you love me barracuda?

If you always need to bring out the worst in me



Ten mourners with their whiskers blowing

Howling like a winter gale

Dark woman like a crawler growing

Growing for the carry meat



The ocean will have us all



Dead forest with the moon arising

Smiling at you out of reach

Cracked window in a chapel dreaming

Hoping while they drain 'em each
