Higgs Boson Blues (Live at Alexandra Palace, 2020) Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

[Intro]
Can't remember anything at all
Can't remember anything at all

[Verse 1]
Black road long and I drove and drove
Came upon a crossroad
The night was hot and black
I see Robert Johnson with a ten dollar guitar
Strapped to his back looking for a tune
Well, here comes Lucifer with his canon law
And a hundred black babies running from his genocidal jaw
He's got the real killer groove
Robert Johnson and the devil, man
Don't know who's gonna rip off who

[Verse 2]
I'm driving my car, flame trees on fire
Sitting and singing the Higgs Boson Blues
And I'm tired, I'm tired and I'm looking for a spot to drop
All the clocks have stopped in Memphis
In the Lorraine Motеl, it's hot, it's hot, it's hot
That's why they call it the Hot Spot
Take a room with a viеw
Hear a man preaching in a language that's completely new
Making the hot cots in the flophouse bleed
While the cleaning ladies sob into their mops, and the
Bellhop hops and a-bops
When a shot rings out, it's a spiritual groove
Everybody bleeding to the Higgs Boson Blues
