Sister Rosetta (2011 Version)
She's a caged animal
London by night
Crashing lights and cymbals
Queens of twilight
And if I was you
I'd use the loo
Before the long drive
We compliment each other
Just like Satan and Christ
Baby when I am laid to rest
May my laughter remain
Like your kiss blew me away
Capture the spirit
I gotta know right now
I see you before me
Won't you show me how?
I wear my hair fizzy
I don't copy no style
Cause kissing and a scrubbing
Has consequences
You're on the bus again
Past Big Ben
And you're playing the wild card
Tell your A.S.B.O. friend
To sling his hook and 'go make your girl smile '
Cause baby when I am laid in earth
May my laughter remain
Like your kiss blew me away
Left your scent on my pillow
Sister Rosetta was playin
The congregation insane
Drinking to the house with no name
capture the spirit
I gotta know right now
I see you before me
Won't you show me now?
Cause I am the landlord
And you'll be my troubadour
Was it better before me?
Won't you show me how?
How?
~~~
You gotta capture the spirit
I gotta know right now
I see you before me
Won't you show me now?
I am the landlord
And you'll be my troubadour
Was it better before me?
You just don't know how
Answer your spirit
And let it all hang out
I see you before me
Won't you show me now?
I am the landlord
You'll be my troubadour
Oh oh oh oh oh
Don't you show me how?
How?
How!
