Mr. Clarinet Lyrics


I have a friend in you, oh Mr Clarinet
you make me laugh, and then cry like the song of the clarinet.
marry me, marry me alive O
I put on my coat of trumpets
will she be there? is my piccolo on straight?her white stockings and red dress that goes
swish, swish, swish around her legs of lace
marry me, marry me alive Ocould you tell her
would you tell her for me, oh Mr Clarinet
that I love her love her, oh love her
I love her but I cannot waitmarry me, marry me alive O
oh maybe, oh maybe lie down

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Birthday Party were an Australian post-punk band, from 1977 to 1983. Formed in Melbourne, the band were one of the darkest and most challenging post-punk groups to emerge in the early '80s, creating bleak and noisy soundscapes that provided the perfect setting for vocalist NIck Cave's difficult, disturbing stories of religion, violence, and perversity. Their sound drew upon punk, rockabilly, free jazz and the rawest blues, but transcended concise categorization.
