Please Lyrics by John Cale

Vintage Violence

1970

[Verse 1]
Won't you help me please, I'm growing old
A million years ago
Won't you help me sneeze, I've caught a cold
Another way to go

[Chorus 1]
Just hold on tightly
This show's on nightly
They speak so very slow
It gets so hard to follow

[Verse 2]
Slowly in the mist of captive eyes
To carry you from home
Hansom cab again from dawn 'til dusk
My power amphibious bride

[Chorus 2]
I'll just leave you here like this
I'm sure you won't be missed
Before this night is done
These words won't seem so wrong

[Chorus 3]
But it can't be that bad
Back up in Trinidad
Come down and see me soon
When you get back from the moon
