Patrick Wolf Vulture lyrics

Vulture, down, down

Losing my head to Hollywood
My liver to London
My youth to Tokyo
Still on with the show

Oh, oh, on, oh, oh, on
And oh, oh, on

It's a hard lesson but let me learn

L.A. big wheels turn, turn
All your forest fires burn
And all my dead meat yearns
For the vulture's return

Take this d-d-dead meat
My d-d-dead meat
Your d-d-dead meat
My d-d-dead meat

Coming down, coming down


Down in Santa Monica suicide motel
One date with the devil, 7 days in hell
Mama don't worry I say the boy is doing fine
Home in a hurry and be sane with good t-t-time, time

Hard lessons but let me learn

L.A. big wheels turn, turn
And all your forest fires burn
And all my dead meat yearns
For the vulture's return

Take my d-d-dead meat
My d-d-dead meat
Your d-d-dead meat
Your d-d-dead meat

Come on down, dead meat, vulture
