So you've come back for Jennifer
You know, she hides her face behind a veil
I'm warning you Frankie, leave on the next train
Your Jennifer she just isn't the same
Quit waving that thing about! come back!
Come back and give me a chance to explain
Your baby will never cry again.
So don't try to reach out
And don't let the ship's flag down
Point the figure-head at the storm
And drive her hard upon
Don't stop and don't stop
And don't let the veil drop
(another ship ready to sail--the rigging is tight
Tight like Jennifer's veil).
She drew the curtain on her face
Ever since they came and burnt the old place down
Why is she searching through the ashes?
Why, only Jennifer knows that now.
And the officer, without a word,
Left all his junk and just moved out.
So don't try to reach out
And don't let the ship's flag down
Point the figure-head at the glass
smash! smash! into shards
Don't stop and don't touch!
And don't let the veil drop...behind Jennifer's veil
Oh god! Frankie! is that really you!
Get back! don't reach out!
Get back, and get that lantern out of my room!
don't try to reach out
And don't let the ship's flag down
Down, down over her, like a shroud
And let her sail on the sea like a stone.
Don't touch and don't touch
And don't let the veil drop
Another ship ready to dock...the rigging comes loose...
The Birthday Party, originally known as The Boys Next Door, were an Australian post-punk group active from 1976 to 1983. Founded in Melbourne by Nick Cave (vocals), Mick Harvey (guitar), Tracy Pew (bass) and Phill Calvert (drums), the band quickly gained popularity for their dark, aggressive and theatrical music. Cave, with his magnetic charisma and provocative lyrics, emerged as a central figure in the Australian music scene of the 1980s. 1979 saw the release of their debut album, "The Birthday Party", followed by "Junkyard" in 1981. The group collaborated with artists like The Bad Seeds and Sonic Youth. Their music was influenced by punk rock, industrial music and avant-garde. After a series of intense tours and internal problems, The Birthday Party disbanded in 1983. Nick Cave then formed a new band, The Bad Seeds, continuing to explore dark and introspective themes in his music.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
