Super Furry Animals


She came in smelling of cabbages 
Pumpkin roots and all winter's ravages 
She came in around dawn 
Took her coat off 
Burdened down by the Russian winter 
Felt the warmth of the hearth 
Bathed a while naked in hot water 
Wash away imminent disaster 
Thinking through her today 
And the murder 
Of the bailiff and the landowner 
Felt no shame 
Only gain 

Cleansed the pike 
Peeled all the potatoes 
Beetroots ripe for bellies of gigolos 
Served it up for her son and her daughter 
For the last time she imagines 
Reprobates lie in wait 

Baby bye-bye 
(Bye-bye, bye-bye) 
(Sky) 
Bye-bye baby 
(Sky, sky) 
Skybaby 
(Sky, sky) 
Bye-bye baby 
(Sky, sky) 
Sweet vigilante 
(Sky, sky) 
Bye-bye baby 
(Sky, sky) 
Skybaby 
(Sky, sky) 
Bye-bye baby 
(Sky, sky) 
Sweet vigilante 
(Sky) 
Baby bye-bye
