Terrible Angels - CocoRosie

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 provide the bird bath

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

Oh if every angel’s terrible

Then why do you watch her sleep

You love to hear her sing

And wear purple eyes like rings

Well the flowers have no scent

And the child’s been miscarried

Oh every angel’s terrible

Said freud and rilke all the same

Rimbaud never paid them no mind

But jimmi morrison had his elevators

His elevators

He had his elevator angels

If 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

If every angel’s terrible…
