Head Cut

Siouxsie and The Banshees

The head is the best part
My head cut my woodcut

I saw you in the gallery
With your torso and family
A huge smiling central face
With eyes and lips cut out
But smiling and eating
Lots of others lips
A beautiful mask in plaster cast
Such a beautiful mask in plaster cast

Can I take it back with me
Back to the flat with me

Oh severed head
I'll feed your head with bread
And paint your lips bright red
I'll keep it fresh on ice
It will look very nice

Can I take it with me
Back to flat with me

Shrunken heads under the bed
The flies are humming
There's a red under the bed
The spit is turning
Roasting burning
Shadows dancing-by the fire
Flickering flames laugh-with desire

The head is the best part
My head cut my woodcut
