Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Thirsty Dog Lyrics

I know you've heard it all before
I'm sorry for this three year war
But they're setting up the camps
And wire, and trenches
I'm sorry for the other night
I know sorry, it don't make it right
I'm sorry for things I can't even mention

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog, alright now

You keep nailing me back in my box
I'm sorry that I keep popping up
With my crazy mouth
And jangling jester's cap
I'm sorry I ever wrote that book
I'm sorry for the way I look
But there ain't a lot that
I can do about that, oh no no

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog

I'm sorry about the hospital
Some things are unforgivable
The things simply cannot be forgiven
I was not equipped to know how to care
On the occasions I came up for air
I saw my life and wondered
What the hell have I been living

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
Feeling very very sorry in the Thirsty Dog, alright now

I'm sorry about all your friends
I hope they'll speak to me again
I said before I'll pay for all the damages
I'm sorry it's just rotten luck
I'm sorry I've forgotten how to fuck
It's just that I think my heart
And soul are kind of famished

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog, woah

Forgive me, baby but don't worry
Love is always having to
Say you're sorry
And I am, from my head
Down to my shoes
I'm sorry that I'm always pissed
I'm sorry that I exist
And when I look into your eyes
I can see you're sorry too

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very thirsty in the Sorry Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog
