Cosmic Dancer - Nick Cave

I was dancing when I was twelve

I was dancing when I was twelve

I was dancing when I was out

I was dancing when I was out

I danced myself right out the womb

I danced myself right out the womb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself right out the womb

I was dancing when I was eight

I was dancing when I was eight

Is it strange to dance so late?

Is it strange to dance so late?

I danced myself into the tomb

I danced myself into the tomb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself into the tomb

Is it wrong to understand

The fear that dwells inside a man?

What's it like to be alone?

I liken it to a balloon

I danced myself out of the womb

I danced myself out of the womb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself into the tomb

(And then again once more)

I danced myself out of the womb

I danced myself out of the womb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself out of the womb
