Lyrics
I think Judy would love this song He loved Nico Ask Jerry Stafford She can ask someone at Vogue
Full lyrics — tap to collapse
A box of buttons Safety pins A badgers skull Washed up by the river Shells and auld coins Among the stones A lonely wedding ring
Besides the Thames One Sunday morning A biting wind Washed up Epaulettes A vibrant jewel You gave to Nemeth Which Jon Moore stole for himself
Mrs Blame Mrs Blame This is what it’s come to Mrs Blame Mrs Blame Oh what a shame Judy played a good game
The barbs of Maybury Out on that ledge I stole your fingers After that kiss Lest you forget To know your beauty You are the boy life won’t resist
Mrs Blame Mrs Blame This is what it’s come to Mrs Blame Oh Mrs Blame Oh what a shame Give yourself a girl’s name
Oh oh Mrs Blame Oh oh Mrs Blame Oh oh Mrs Blame Oh oh Mrs Blame
The barbs of Maybury Out on that ledge I stole your fingers After that kiss Lest you forget To know your beauty You are the boy life won’t resist
Mrs Blame Mrs Blame This is what it’s come to Mrs Blame Oh Mrs Blame Oh what a shame Give yourself a girl’s name
Mrs Blame Mrs Blame This is what it’s come to Mrs Blame Mrs Blame Oh what a shame Judy played a good game
Oh oh Mrs Blame Oh oh Mrs Blame Oh oh Mrs Blame Oh oh Mrs Blame
