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 say you'll provide the bird bath
If 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
If every angel's terrible
Then why do you watch her sleep?
You love to hear her sing
And wear purple eyes like rings
And the flowers have no scent
And the child's been miscarried.

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 say you'll provide the bird bath
If I provide the skin,
And bathing in the moonlight
I'm to tremble like a kitten.

Oh every angel's terrible
Said Freud and Rilke are all the same
Rimbaud never paid them no mind
and Jimmy Morrison had his elevators
His elevators
He had his elevator angels.
And 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

(She sounded like an angel when she cried...)

If every angel's terrible the why do you welcome them? x4

You say you'll provide the birdbath
If I provide the skin, yeah
She sounded like an angel when she cried.
