Rid Of Me

Pj Harvey Rid Of Me Lyrics
1.Rid of Me

Tie yourself to me
No one else no
You're not rid of me
No you're not rid of me
Night and day I breathe
You're not rid of me
Yeah you're not rid of me
I beg you my darling
Don't leave me
I'm hurting

Lick my legs I'm on fire
Lick my legs of desire

I'll tie your legs
Keep you against my chest
Oh you're not rid of me
Yeah you're not rid of me
I'll make you lick my injuries
I'm gonna twist your head off, see?
Till you say don't you wish you never never met her
Don't you don't you wish you never never met her
I beg you my darling
Don't leave me
I'm hurting
I've been lonely

Above everything
Above every day

I'm hurting

Lick my legs I'm on fire
Lick my legs of desire

Yeah you're not rid of me
I'll make you lick my injuries
I'm gonna twist your head off, see?
Till you say don't you wish you never never met her
Don't you don't you wish you never never met her

Lick my legs I'm on fire
Lick my legs of desire


2.Missed

He should not be here
He's just too big
In a cloud please come down
I'd put stars at your feet
Put Mars at your head
Show yourself to me
And I'd believe
I'd moan and I'd weep
Fall silent at your speak
I'd burst in
Full to the brim

Mary lost her head
And let it bleed
Came crying back to me
My son, where's he been?
Don't deny it
And don't you hide him
No I've missed him

No words no sign
Mary say I'm not lying
How come he's so big
But good Lord he's been hid
Good Lord where're you hid
No I've missed him


3.Legs

Oh you're divine
Oh did I tell you you're divine
Oh did I ever when you were alive
Did it hurt when you bled
Oh lover boy I'll feed the head
I'll bet you never thought I'd try
Your mouth my love was open wide
Singing oh you were going to be my life
Damn it oh you were going to be my life
Did you sing happy day
Singing it
Sing it that time I went away
Got to ease my aching head
Do you know
No other way cut off your legs oh

Did you ever wish me dead
Oh lover boy I'll feed the head
No you must no you must no go away
How will you ever walk again
And I might as well be dead
But I could kill you instead


4.Rub Till It Bleeds

Speak I'm listening
Baby I'm your sweet thing
Believe what I'm saying
God's truth I'm not lying
Lie steady
Rest your head on me
I'll smooth it nicely
Rub it better 'till it bleeds
And you'll believe me
Caught out again
I'm calling you weak
Getting it up
And I was joking
Sweet babe let me stroke it
Take I'm giving
God's truth I'm not lying
And you'll believe me
I'm calling you weak
And I'll make it better
And rub 'till it bleeds
I'll rub it until it


5.Hook

I was blind I was lame
I was nothing till you came
You said babe make you sing
Make you feel like some queen
Said I'll take you Kathleen
To your home and mine
Lord he hooked me
Fish hook and line

And rolled in like him back
With a halo of deep black
Till my love made me gag
Called him daddy take my hand
Said I'll take you Kathleen
To your home and mine
Good Lord he hooked me
Fish hook and line

I'm hooked
I'm too far
Oh beautiful

I'm bound and I'm lame
Life is nothing with his chain
Daddy wait she can't sing
She can't feel she's no queen
Said I'll take you Kathleen
To your home and mine
Lord he hooked me
Fish hook and line
Said I'll take you Kathleen
To your home and mine
Good Lord he hooked me
We are untied


6.Mansize(Sextet)

I'm coming up man-sized skinned alive
I want to fit I've got to get
Man-sized I'm heading on
Handsome got my leather boots on Got my girl and she's a
wow
I cast my iron knickers down
Man-sized no need to shout
Can you hear can you hear me now
I'm man-sized
Man-sized

I'll measure time I'll measure height
I'll calculate my birthright
Good Lord I'm big I'm heading on
Man-sized got my leather boots on
Got my girl and she's a wow
I cast my iron knickers down
Man-sized no need to shout
Can you hear can you hear me now
My babe looking cool and neat
I'm pretty sure good enough to eat
I'm man-sized no need to shout
Let it all let it all hang out
I'm man-size
Man-size

Silence my lady head
Get girl out of my head
Douse hair with gasoline
Set it light and set it free


7.Highway 61

Oh God said to Abraham, 'Kill me a son.'
Abe said, 'Man you must be puttin me on.'
God said, 'No.' Abe said, 'What?'
God say, 'You can do what you wanna, but
the next time you see me comin you'd better run.'
Abe said, 'Where do you want this killing done?'
God said, 'Out on that Highway 61.'
Well Georgia Sam he had bloody nose
Welfare department would give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard, 'Where can I go?'
Howard said, 'There's only one place I know.'
'Sounds great man, tell me- I gotta run!'
Howard just pointed with his gun
And said, 'That way, down on 61.'
'Well Mack the Finger,' said Louie the King,
'I got 40 red white and blue shoestrings
and a thousand telephone that don't ring
you know I can't get rid of these things.'
And he said, 'Now let me think for a minute son.'
Said, 'Yes that can be easily done
just take them down on that 61.'
That highway
Highway
Highway
That highway
Highway
Now the 5th daughter on the 12th night
Told first father that things weren't right
'My complexion,' she said, 'is much too white.'
He said, 'Come here and stare up into the light.'
He said, 'Hmm you're right. Let me tell the 2nd mother it's been
done.'
But the 2nd mother with the 7th son
They were out on that Highway 61
Now the roving gambler he was very bored
Trying to create a next world war
And he found a promoter fell off the floor
And said, 'I never engaged in this kind of thing before,
but yep I think it can be easily done.'
Highway
'Just put some bleachers there out in the sun
and have it out on that 61.'

9.Yuri-G

Hey there Luna I'd like to tell you
How sad am I so love sick I could die
Needing water my neck's stiff my head hurts
Been looking up all night been looking up the Moon she's so
bright
She's so bright she's so clean
I'm telling you she's everything
I'd give it all my sorry eyes
Give just everything she's got me so mesmerized

Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
It's just the things that she does to me
Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
Been biting my memory

Told by the doctor to make a figure
Needles to get her
She'll be your luna
I stuck them in real clean
I stuck them in a mile
I drew her down on me
I drew her with a smile
I'd give it all you see
I'd give my sorry eyes
Give just everything she's got me so mesmerized

Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
It's just the things that she does to me
Yeah I thought I was Yuri-G
Been biting my memory

I stuck them in real clean
I stuck them in a mile
I drew her down on me
I drew her with a smile
I'd give it all you see
I'd give my sorry eyes
I'd give just everything she's got me so mesmerized

Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
I'd let her walk all over me
Yeah I thought I was Yuri-G
Been biting my memory


10.Mansize(Rock)

I'm coming up man-sized skinned alive
I want to fit I've got to get
Man-sized I'm heading on
Handsome got my leather boots on
Got my girl and she's a wow
I cast my iron knickers down
Man-sized no need to shout
Can you hear can you hear me now

I'll measure time I'll measure height

Good Lord I'm big I'm heading on
Man-sized got my leather boots on
Got my girl and she's a wow

Silence my lady head
Get girl out of my head
Douse hair with gasoline
Set it light and set it free


11.Dry

I caught it in the face
Coming around again
I thought it was worth waiting
You're caught up in my head
Wet sides from time to time
But mostly I'm just dry
You leave me dry
You leave me dry
You leave me dry

You've come all this way
No hair out of place
You put it all on the stage
You put right in my face
But you leave me dry
You leave me dry
You leave me dry

A water well in sight
No water at my sides
I'm sucking on the well
I'm sucking till I'm white
But you leave me dry
You leave me dry
You leave me dry
You leave me dry
You leave me dry


12.Me Jane

Damn your chest-beating just you stop your screaming
Splitting through my head and swinging from the ceiling
Move it over Tarzan can't you see I'm bleeding
I've called you by your first name good lord it's me-Jane
I'm calling split head
I'm moving me-Jane me-Jane
Damn your chest-beating just you stop your screaming
All the time you're hunting swimming fishing breathing
Don't you ever stop and give me time to breathe in
I've called you by your first name good lord it's me-Jane
I'm running split head
And I'm moving me-Jane
And I'm trying to make sense
You're screaming
Don't ruin it on me
Don't ruin it all on me
Tarzan I'm pleading stop your fucking screaming
You've got me many walls around him don't you see it
Oh move it over Tarzan can't you see I'm bleeding
Good Lord you never stop
Don't ruin it on me
Don't ruin it on me-Jane


13.Snake

You snake you crawled between my legs
Said want it all it's yours you bet
I'll make you queen of everything
No need for God no need for him
Just take my hand you'll be my bride
Just take that fruit put it inside
You snake you dog you fake you liar
I've burned my hands I'm in the fire
Oh you salty dog you filthy liar
My heart it aches I'm in the fire
You snake I ate a true belief
Your rotten fruit inside of me
Oh Adam please you must believe
That snake put it in front of me
In front of me


14.Ecstasy

Flying I'm flying
Hitting heavens high
I'm head on brake too low
Floating I'm floating
Hanging below the sea
I'm telling you love could mean ecstasy
I'm in ecstasy
Singing I'm singing
Sounding hanging breathe
I'm begging you love could mean ecstasy
I'm in ecstasy
Ecstasy
