the childcatcher - lush lyrics
“baby,” he says,
“you are like the clean white page and i the pen.
the innocence i find between your girlish thighs
is like the fountain of youth to my old bones.”
and she replies,
“daddy’s little girl’s a precocious child
i love to please, i’ll do anything that you ask of me
eager to fulfill all of daddy’s needs.”
“baby, he says,
“i can never love older girls like i love you.
you’re easier to please and you never give me grief
’cause you accept everything i say and do.”
and she replies,
“i’m in no position to make demands.
i have no past, no one else has done to me what you do.
i’ve got no one else to compare you to.”
[bridge]
“and as you grow older,
try to stay sixteen all your life,
old women grow bitter,
don’t let that happen to you.”
(instrumental break)
[philip king reads the poem “the bloom of youth” by billy childish in background]
“and why is it charming
pretending i’m younger than my years?
why can’t i grow up with dignity?
set me free.”
“baby,” he says,
“now that you’re older i feel our love has died.
once upon a time you never criticised me.
oh, i much preferred you as a child.”
and i reply,
“everything you said to me was a lie.
i know your kind,
you just want a daughter without the wife.
you don’t need a girlfriend you need a life.”
