Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Lyrics

5. Albert Goes West

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 forests 
Of le vulva 
He grew so wan, he grew so sick 
He ended up in a bungalow 
Sucking a revolver 

The light up on your rainy streets 
Offers many reflections 
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? 
Do you wanna groove? 

This world is full of 
Endless abstractions 
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! 

Sha-la-la-la Sha-la-la-la 
Sha-la-la-la La-la-la-la 
La-la-la-la
