Deanna Lyrics

Artist: Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds
Album: Best of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

O DEANNA
O Deanna!
O DEANNA
Sweet Deanna!
O DEANNA
You know you are my friend, yeah
O DEANNA
And I ain't down here for your money
I ain't down here for your love
I ain't down here for your love or money
I'm down here for your soul

No carpet on the floor
And the winding cloth holds many moths
Around your Ku Klux furniture
I cum of death-head in your frock
We discuss the murder plan
We discuss murder and the murder act
Murder takes the wheel of your Cadillac
And death climbs in the back

O DEANNA
This is a car
O DEANNA
This is a gun
O DEANNA
And this a day number one
O DEANNA
Our little crimeworn histories
Black and smoking christmas trees
And honey, it ain't mystery
Why you're a mystery to me

We will eat out of their pantries
And their parlours
Ashy leaving in their beds
And we'll unload into their heads
On this mean season
This little angel that I squeezin'
She ain't been mean to me

O DEANNA
O Deanna!
O DEANNA
You are my friend and my partner
O DEANNA
On this house on the hill
O DEANNA
And I ain't down here for your money
I ain't down here for your love
I ain't down here for your love or money
I'm down here for your soul

O DEANNA
I am a-knocking
O DEANNA
With my toolbox and my stocking
O DEANNA
And I'll meet you on the corner
O DEANNA
Yes, you point it like a finger
O DEANNA
And squeeze its little thing
O DEANNA
Feel its kick, hear its bang
And let no worry about its issue
Don't worry about where its been
and don't worry about where it hits
Cause it just ain't yours to sin

O DEANNA
No it just ain't your to sin
O DEANNA
Sweet Deanna
O DEANNA
And we ain't getting any younger
O DEANNA
And I don't intend gettin' any older
O DEANNA
The sun a hump at my shoulder
O DEANNA
O Deanna!
O DEANNA
Sweet Deanna
O DEANNA
And I ain't down here for your money
I ain't down here for your love
I ain't down here for your love of money
I'm down here for your soul

by DeAnna on 7/7/2008 5:01pm I can't beleive it either.. is this about me? I live on a hill I have a gun I don't have carpet on my floor This is totally creapin' me out!
by SCC on 7/10/2008 5:03pm You people suck. This song is great.
by DeAnna on 7/12/2008 11:32am I kinda dig it.
by wardy on 7/15/2008 9:52pm this song is awesome. you should be proud to share a name with it. just listen to the energy.
by Anya on 7/18/2008 4:51pm i always thought the name 'Deanna' sucked. until i heard this song.
by Deanna82 on 7/29/2008 2:02am Oh me oh Deanna what is the story behind this song?
by deanna on 8/7/2008 6:35pm ive just changed my name to deanna from diane..theres a whole lot nicer songs writtten about my old name ..haha.deannas such a gorgeous honey name tho!
by Christian on 8/8/2008 5:29am I cum of death head in your frock???!!! i come out dancing in your frock...
by Anna on 8/10/2008 4:30am It is not really a horrible song. It is really a love song. A love song not about "lovers" but about two best friends, a "Bonnie and Clyde" sort of friendship. Not necessarily about hurting, but about long night chats and comradeship that two people have about "them and us" more like... A close chat between friends about how it is us against the rest of the world and then conquer-ship!
by Deanna Jean on 8/21/2008 5:35pm I am the Deanna in the song. The lead singer is a weirdo perv who won't leave me alone. We grew up living next door and he would leave dead animals on my doorstep. He told me he wrote this and the only thing worse than the lyrics is his awful voice.
by Tracy on 9/18/2008 4:39pm NICK CAVE IS AWESOME!!! You guys just don't know good music.....Saw him last night at the Hollywood Bowl and he performed this song....it was beautiful and amazing and everything that is expected from a great live performance. And Deanna Jean, if you are the girl Nick Cave wrote the song about, where did you two grow up together? Huh??? Yeah, that's what I thought.....
by Deanna 3 on 9/22/2008 1:48am I still like his voice so hope the song will sound okay. I havn't realy studied the lyrics at this point and don't realy inted to... Sux for you Deanna Jean LOL
by dee deedee deanna on 11/3/2008 7:22pm It wasn't horrible exactly. The music is ok, the lyrics are supercreepy and I think I'll keep my soul if you don't mind. I'll just keep using Randy Rhoads "dee" as my theme song.
by Jess on 1/13/2009 6:00pm This song isn't horrible!!! It's probably one of the catchiest songs he wrote. Just listen to the actual song before saying it's horrible! I WISH my name was Deanna!
by Eliza Day on 2/15/2009 10:15am Oh, Deanna Jean, no one believes you.
by GBH on 3/4/2009 1:50pm It's a great song - especially the acoustic version.
by Deanna on 3/13/2009 5:15pm OH MY!!!! IM IN SHOCK!!!! O.O We Deannas should make a better song with our name in it. this one is just plain wrong!
by Loves Executioner on 3/27/2009 9:42pm I know exactly who Deanna is - I knew her well in Melbourne Australia back in the day. One of the prettiest girls I met in my life, she was stunningly beautiful. She now lives in another Aust city and values her privacy. She does not like this song, but remains friends with NC. As for Deanna Jean? Hmmm..
by Deanna L. on 4/2/2009 3:40pm Ok I gotta admit. WHAT THE HECK IS UP WITH THIS SONG. IM SERIOUSLY FREAKED OUT RIGHT NOW....
by Manolo on 6/6/2009 3:53pm stupid girls with stupid tastes in music, i bet. this song is great. to much for your strawberry brains?
by idiots on 8/4/2009 8:18am Fucking cretinous retards, please don't comment on stuff you can't possible comprehend.
by Diana, on 8/22/2009 2:32pm eff you guys, this is totally my theme song. when else can you chant your own name so joyously without feeling like a total narcisist. i'll keep this one for myself. my names not spelled diana but the i is pronounced like an e.
by Deanna8D on 9/27/2009 10:45am OMG wow! this is seriously the only song with my name and it has to be bought like werid crap lol! Figures!! Oh well at least my name is FINALLY in a song ha ha!!
