Why not come to my pad? It won’t cost you a dime” Mr. Stagger Lee “But there’s something I have to say before you begin You’ll have to be gone before my man Billy Dilly comes in, Stagger Lee” “I’ll stay here till Billy Dilly comes in, till time comes to pass And furthermore I’ll fuck Billy Dilly in his motherfucking ass” Said Stagger Lee “I’m a bad motherfucker, don’t you know And I’ll crawl over fifty good pussies just to get to one fat boy’s asshole” Said Stagger Lee Just then Billy Dilly rolls in and said, “You must be That bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee” Stagger Lee “Yeah, I’m Stagger Lee and you better get down on your knees And suck my dick, because if you don’t you’re sure to be dead” Said Stagger Lee Billy Dilly dropped down and slobbered on his head And Stag filled him full of lead Oh yeah. #NickCaveandthebadseeds #StaggerLee #MurderBallads (C)1995 Mute Records, a BMG Company.
