Noisettes — Sister Rosetta (Capture The Spirit) lyrics

Lyrics

She’s a caged animal, London by night
Crashing lights and cymbals, queens of twilight
And if I was you I’d use the loo
Before the long drive, we compliment each other
Just like Satan and Christ, baby, when I am laid to rest
May my laughter remain like your kiss blew me away
Answer your spirit, I gotta know right now
I see you before me, won’t you show me how?
I wear my hair fizzy, I don’t copy no style
'Cause kissing and a scrubbing has consequences
You’re on the bus again, Past Big Ben
With your rip off oyster card, tell your A.S.B.O. friend
To sling his hook and, «Go, make your girl smile»
'Cause baby, when I am laid in earth
May my laughter remain like your kiss blew me away
Left your scent on my pillow
Sister Rosetta was playing the congregation insane
Drinking to the house with no name
You gotta capture the spirit, I gotta know right now
I see you before me, won’t you show me how?
I am the landlord, you’ll be my troubadour
Was it better before me? Won’t you show me how, how?
You gotta capture the spirit, I gotta know right now
I see you before me, won’t you show me how?
'Cause I am the landlord and you’ll be my troubadour
Better before me? You just don’t know how
Capture the spirit and let it all hang out
I see you before me, darling, show me now
I am the landlord, you’ll be my troubadour
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, won’t you show me how, how?
