Scott Walker — Tilt lyrics

Lyrics

He was so strong
he was so bold
When they made
him
they broke
the mold
If he heads
this way
when the moon
is slow
Come over
and pray
they’ll turn
the buffalo
they’ll turn
the buffalo
There’s a need
to sleep
in the shag
of his stomach
Slide around
his eye
with your love
in tow
If he heads
this way
don’t you say
hello
Get out of the way
they’ll turn
the buffalo
they’ll turn
the buffalo
Our town
our town
do love a stampede
Stampede by my jacket
in the park
Someday I’ll
pick it up look for the
label and
whisper
Tilt
ain’t got no no no
Tilt
got none at all
Tilt
ain’t got no no no
A mother waits
as still as the moonlight
Standing in long grass
with her
cold cold
nose
What she feels
so deep
she will never
show
Baby don’t
you weep
they’ll turn
the buffalo
they’ll turn
the buffalo
Our town
our town
do love
a stampede
Stampede
by my old
jacket
in the park
Someday
I’ll pick it up look for the
maker and
whisper
Tilt
ain’t got no no no
Tilt
got none at all
Tilt
ain’t got no no no
not at all
