Текст Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds — Today’s Lesson

Little Janie she wakes up from a dream
a gun like a jawbone down the waistband of her jeans
mr Sandman can recite today’s lesson in his sleep
he says
(there oughta be a law against me going down on the street)
little Janie pipes up & she says!!!!!
we’re GONNA HAVE A REAL COOL TIME TONITE!!!!
down the back of Janie’s jeans she had the jawbone of an ass
mr Sandman runs around the corner
trying to head her off at the pass
he sticks his head over the fence and yells
something way too fast
(it’s today’s lesson)
something about the
CORRUPTION OF THE WORKING CLASS!!!!
little Janie wakes up on the floor & she says!!!!
we’re GONNA HAVE A REAL COOL TIME TONITE!!!!
(Janie says we are all such a crush of want half-mad w/ loss we are
violated in our sleep & we weep & we toss & we turn & we
burn we are
hypnotised we are cross-eyed we are pimped we are bitched we are told
such monstrous lies—)
Janie wakes up & she says
we’re GONNA HAVE A REAL COOL TIME TONITE!!!!
mr. Sandman has a certain appetite for Janie in repose
he digs her pretty knees & that she is completely naked
underneath all her clothes
he likes to congregate around the intersection of Janie’s jeans
mr. Sandman     the inseminator
opens her up like a love-letter     & enters her   dreams
little Janie wakes up & she says!!!!
we’re GONNA HAVE A REAL good TIME TONITE!!!!
o yeah little Janie wakes up & she says!!!!
we’re GONNA HAVE A REAL good TIME TONITE!!!!
TONITE!!!! TONITE!!!! TONITE!!!!! CMON!!!!
CMON!!!!
CMON!!!!
CMON!!!!!
CMON!!!!!!!
