Figurine Lyrics


I keep a figurine in a locket
I like the way she looks in there
I keep a certain shade of lipstick
silky taste and the way it smearsI bought her a keepsake on a full moon
in a trinket from an old junk shop
now her blush is racing out of control
In a well known teenage pleasure spotI slept with a wolf and I dined with a thief
and I drank up a river of witches` milk
If this spell should ever wear off
you`ll never wash your hands of love
you`ll never wash your hands of love
I`m gonna need a strong anaesthetic
to keep your memory away
I bought myself a pearl handled gun
and I`ll use it on myself come valentine`s dayBeen with Jonah in the belly of the whale
And with Daniel in the lion`s den
If this spell should ever wear off
you`ll never ever be clean again

and I`ll never ever be mean againI keep a figurine in a locket
I like the way she looks in there
I like a certain shade of lipstick
silky taste and the way it smears
I slept with a wolf and I dined with a thief
and I drank up a river of witches` milk
If this charm should ever wear off
you`ll never wash your hands of love
you`ll never wash your hands of love

The band originated in Perth, Western Australia in the late 1970s. They went through various line-up changes until the early 1980s when they moved to Sydney and later Melbourne and released their first LP Treeless Plain. The band toured extensively in Europe and caught the attention of the UK music press, being featured on the cover of NME twice. Four albums followed - Born Sandy Devotional, In The Pines, Calenture and The Black Swan - before the group disbanded in 1989. David McComb and "Evil" Graham Lee joined The Blackeyed Susans while Martyn P Casey joined Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
