Albert Goes West Lyrics

Nick Cave – Albert Goes West Lyrics

Albert he goes west he crosses
The vast indifferent deserts of Arizona
He had a psychotic episode on a dude ranch
That involved a bottle of ammonia

Henry he went south and lost his way
Deep in the weeping forest of Le vulva
He grew so worn he grew so sick
He ended up in a bungalow sucking a revolver

The light upon your rainy streets
Offers many reflections
And I won't be held responsible
For my actions

Bobby, he goes north then he goes east
Then over to New Hampshire
Bobby is a cautious man he walked into
A Concord dive, to drink a beer

Do you wanna dance??
Yeah do you wanna move??
Yeah do you wanna dance??
Don't you wanna groove??

The world is full of
Endless abstractions
And I won't be held responsible
For my actions

Me, I ain't going anywhere
Just sit and watch the sun come up
I like it here!
I watch the people go ticking past
I go hey hey hey
You know I gotta say, I like it here!!

Shala shala la, la, la, la
La, la, la , la
Shala, la, la, shala, shala, shala, la, la
