The full lyrics of Caves' version of Stagger Lee would scare the kiddies, Oliver Henry and even give nightmares to MaynardGood point. There's some great potential:
"Stag put four holes in his mother******* head"
Definitely the kind of thing we want our blokes to be emulating.
But there's great danger in Nick Cave too:
He’ll wrap you in his arms, tell you that you’ve been a good boy
He’ll rekindle all those dreams it took you a lifetime to destroy
He’ll reach deep into the hole, heal your shrinking soul
"Wrap you in his arms" "you've been a good boy" "rekindle all those dreams" "Shrinking soul" * that s**t. He's basically telling our blokes to lie down with a needle in their arm, sulking.
