Kiss The Carpet Blues

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Following my mention of a blues-rock deconstruction of Kiss The Carpet in the Reptile House thread http://myheartland.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2894 I've wriiten some lyrics.

Kiss The Carpet Blues

Woke up this morning, my babe had red eyes and she wore dust (da-nanng na-nannng)
Woke up this morning, my babe had red eyes and she wore dust (da-nanng na-nannng)
Well I was tryin' to kiss the ol' carpet, but just rolled over and went bust
(doo-doooda doo-doooda doo-doooda doo dooo doo dooo)

Oh yeah,

Woke up this morning, my babe had red eyes and she wore dust (da-nanng na-nannng)
Woke up this morning, my babe had red eyes and she wore dust (da-nanng na-nannng)
Well I think next time I'll look before I kiss that ol' carpet and go bust
(doo-doooda doo-doooda doo-doooda doo dooo doo dooo)

Hmmmm - this seems like a good game.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

A heartfelt work of genius, I laughed, I cried
