Song lyrics Marianne Faithfull - Visions Of Johanna
[00:10.77] Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
[00:20.61] We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
[00:31.55] And louise holds a handful of rain, temptin' you to defy it
[00:43.28] Lights flicker from the opposite loft
[00:47.73] In this room the heat pipes just cough
[00:54.99] The country music station plays soft
[00:59.45] But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off
[01:06.66] Just louise and her lover so entwined
[01:15.71] And these visions of johanna that conquer my mind.
[01:31.08] Inside the museums, infinity goes up on trial
[01:40.97] Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
[01:51.79] But mona lisa musta had the highway blues
[01:58.11] You can tell by the way she smiles
[02:00.80] See the primitive wallflower freeze
[02:09.82] When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
[02:16.19] Hear the one with the mustache say, "jeeze
[02:20.66] I can't find my knees"
[02:25.12] Jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
[02:35.94] But these visions of johanna, they make it all seem so cruel.
[02:53.15] The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
[03:03.00] Sayin', "name me someone who's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
[03:13.81] But like louise always says
[03:18.34] "Ya can't look at much, can ya man? "
[03:20.10] As she, herself, prepares for him
[03:23.74] And madonna, she still hasn't showed
[03:32.82] We see the empty cage now corrode
[03:38.17] Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
[03:41.81] The fiddler, he now steps on the road
[03:45.43] He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
[03:48.12] On the back of the fish trucks that load
[03:52.63] While my conscience explodes
[03:58.01] The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
[04:07.94] And these visions of johanna are now all that remain.
[04:31.39]
