The Libertines - Death On The Stairs Música y Letra

From way far across the sea
 Came an eritrean maiden she
 Had a one track mind and eyes for me
 Half blinded in the war
 
 With a pale young Anglican
 Who said he'd help her all he can
 Showed her Jesus and his little un-holy friend
 She had no notion to please him
 Just say 'ta-ra' and leave him behind
 
 There's a little boy in a stairwell who says
 "I hate people like you"
 Got match sticks & cable TV half of less than 50p
 We all clambered over the balcony
 Banging on the window waking Steve
 Bringing with a true love his un-holy friend
 Singing if you really need it
 You just won't leave it behind
 
 So baby please kill me
 Oh baby don't kill me
 But don't bring that ghost round to my door
 I don't wanna see him anymore
 
 Please kill me
 Oh baby don't kill me
 Just don't bang on about yesterday
 I wouldn't know about that anyway
 
 Monkey asked the mouse before
 If she loved anybody more than he
 It turns you into stone
 Now I'm reversing down the lonely street
 To a cheap hotel where I can meet the past
 pay it off and keep it sweet
 It's sweet like nothing no
 It's just like nothing at all
 
 Yes I've seen you there
 How could I help but stare
 It rips the heart out of your baby
 Now I've taken far too much to see
 Or think or touch what's real
 I'm stranded on this street which once
 Paved my only way home
 
 You really need it oh
 You just won't leave it behind
 
 Oh please kill me
 Oh no don't kill me
 But don't bring that ghost round to my door
 I don't wanna see him anymore
 
 Please kill me
 Oh no don't kill me
 But don't go on about yesterday
 I wouldn't know about that anyway
 Oh no
 
 He got nothing no, he got nothing at all
