[00:00.00]Higgs Boson Blues (Live from KCRW) - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
[00:11.61]Can't remember anything at all
[00:19.29]Flame trees lined the streets
[00:29.27]Can't remember anything at all
[00:35.22]But I'm driving my car down to Geneva
[00:47.15]I been sitting in my basement patio
[00:56.79]Aye it was hot
[01:04.05]Up above girls walk past
[01:09.24]Their roses all in bloom
[01:18.83]Have you ever heard about the Higgs Boson Blues
[01:26.75]I'm goin' down to Geneva baby
[01:31.40]Gonna teach it to you
[01:40.29]Who cares who cares what the future brings
[01:56.96]Black road long and I drove and drove
[02:03.55]I came upon a crossroad
[02:07.23]The night was hot and black
[02:14.62]I see Robert Johnson with a ten dollar guitar
[02:21.67]Strapped to his back
[02:24.23]Looking for a tune
[02:31.62]Well here comes Lucifer
[02:34.76]With his canon law
[02:37.71]And a hundred black babies running from his genocidal jaw
[02:48.17]He got the real killer groove
[02:52.25]Robert Johnson and the devil man
[02:57.14]Don't know who's gonna rip off who
[03:06.12]Driving my car flame trees on fire
[03:13.01]Sitting and singin' the Higgs Boson Blues
[03:23.20]I'm tired I'm lookin' for a spot to drop
[03:31.01]All the clocks have stopped in Memphis now
[03:38.75]In the Lorraine Motel it's hot
[03:43.17]It's hot that's why they call it a hot spot
[03:52.23]I take a room with a view
[03:56.96]Hear a man preaching in a language that's completely new
[04:06.58]Yeah
[04:12.38]Making the hot cots in the flophouse bleed
[04:18.32]While the cleaning ladies sob into their mops
[04:22.67]And the bellhop hops and bops
[04:29.23]And a shot rings out to a spiritual groove
[04:36.37]Everybody bleeding to the Higgs Boson Blues
[04:46.19]And if I die tonight
[04:49.24]Bury me in my favourite yellow patent leather shoes
[05:00.83]With a mummified cat and a conelike hat
[05:07.85]That the Caliphate forced on the Jews
[05:18.77]Can you feel my heart beat
[05:22.79]Can you feel my heart beat
[05:35.34]Hannah Montana does the African Savannah
[05:44.91]As the simulated rainy season begins
[05:51.68]She curses the queue at the Zulus
[05:56.63]And moves on to Amazonia
[06:01.55]And cries with the dolphins
[06:08.26]And mama ate the pygmy
[06:11.46]The pygmy ate the monkey
[06:14.43]The monkey has a gift that
[06:17.58]He is sending back to you
[06:24.81]Look here come the missionary
[06:28.21]With his smallpox and flu
[06:35.14]He's saving them savages
[06:44.58]With his Higgs Boson Blues
[07:00.55]I'm driving my car down to Geneva
[07:13.52]I'm driving my car down to Geneva
[07:48.53]Oh let the damn day break
[07:55.48]Rainy days always make me sad
[08:04.12]Miley Cyrus floats in a swimming pool in Toluca Lake
[08:12.65]And you're the best girl I ever had
