Lyrics Mark Lanegan – Night Flight To Kabul
Text:
Is there gold, is there gold in Kabul?
I’ve been there in a nest of snakes
I’ve been there as a blackout artist
Everyone there tryna take my place
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
I was there as a midnight watchman
I was there for a masquerade
I was there as a makeup artist
Everyone trying to point the blame
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
I sawed myself in halves
I grew myself a pair of hooves
You gave to me this gift
I love you still, alone I drift
Is there gold, gold in Kabul?
I’ve been there in a suicide vest
I’ve been there with a hangman rising
Everyone tryna take the piss
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
I sawed myself in halves
I grew myself a pair of hooves
You gave to me this gift
I love you still, alone I drift
You can walk from there to China
From state to reptilian state
Holy Americans, singing vespers
Convinced that they control somebody’s fate
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
I sawed myself in halves
I grew myself a pair of hooves
You gave to me this gift
I love you still, alone I drift
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
Is there gold?
