1 " It’s hard to walk in the dress, it’s not easyI’m swinging over like a heavy loaded fruit tree "
― P.J. Harvey
2 " Filthy tight, the dress is filthyI’m falling flat and my arms are emptyClear the way, better get it out of this roomA fallen woman in dancing costume "
3 " I lost my heartUnder the bridgeTo that little girl –So much to me.And now I moan,And now I holler...She'll never knowJust what I found.That blue eyed girl –She said "no more";That blue eyed girlBecame blue eyed whore.Down by the water,I took her hand.Just like my daughter,I'll see her againOh, help me, Jesus.Come through this storm.I had to lose herTo do her harm;I heard her holler,I heard her moan,My lovely daughter...I took her home.Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water,Come back here, man, give me my daughter.Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water.Come back here, man, give me my daughter. "
4 " My fingers sting where I feel your fingers have beenGhostly fingers moving my limbsOh god I miss youOh god I miss youOh god I miss youOh god I miss youOh god I miss you "
5 " Speak to me of heroin and speed / Of genocide and suicide, of syphilis and greed "
6 " Put money in your idle hole. "
7 " Hey! I’m the king o’ the world!You hear my song?Come on, measure me –I’m twenty inches long! "
8 " Water,Walking,Walking on water.Walking,Walking on for years and years and years.Taking it into my head,Living by the right lines,Reading what the very man said.Water,I'm walking,Walking on water,Walking,Walking on.Lying on eleven years,Taking it into my head,Mary, Mary drop me softly.Been reading what your very man said;Lying on eleven yearsTaking it into my head.Leave my clothes on the beach;I'm walking down into the sea.Prove it to me. "
9 " I think the way we are as we get older is a result of what we knew when we were children. "
10 " Oh, wind and rain may haunt me,Look to the north and pray.Send me, please, his kisses;Send them home today.I'm begging Jesus, 'Please,Send his love to me!'Left alone in desert,This house becomes a hell,This love becomes a tether,This room becomes a cell.Mummy, Daddy, please,Send him back to me!How long must I suffer?Dear God, I've served my time.This love becomes my torture;This love, my only crime.Oh, lover, please release me.My arms too weak to grip,My eyes too dry for weeping,My lips too dry to kiss.Calling Jesus, 'Please,Send his love to me! "
11 " Tell you my nameF.U.C.K!50 ft Queenie!Force 10 hurricane.Biggest woman,I could have 10 sons!10 gods, 10 queens,10 ft and rising! "
12 " Hit her with a hammerteeth smashed inred tongues twitchinglook inside a skeleton "
