Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Watching Alice Lyrics

Alice wakes It is morning She is yawning As she walks about the room Her hair falls down her breast She is naked and it is June Standing at the window I wonder if she knows that I can see
Watching Alice rise year after year Up in her palace, she's captive there
Alice's body Is golden brown Her hair hangs down As she brushes it 100 times First she pulls her stocking on And then the church bell chimes Alice climbes into her uniform The zippers on the side
Watching Alice dressing in her room It's so depressing, it's cruel Watching Alice dressing in her room It's so depressing, it's true
