Echo And The Bunnymen - Bring On The Dancing Horses

Jimmy Brown
Made of stone
Charlie Clown
No way home
Bring on the dancing horses
Headless and all alone

Shiver and say the words
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it
Then I'm gonna break it
Till it falls apart
Hating all the faking
And shaking while I'm breaking

Your brittle heart

Billy stands
All alone
Sinking sand
Skin and bone
Bring on the dancing horses
Wherever they may roam

Shiver and say the words
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it
Then I'm gonna break it
Till it falls apart
Hating all the faking
And shaking while I'm breaking
Your brittle heart

Brittle heart
Brittle heart
Brittle heart
And my little heart
Goes

Jimmy Brown
Made of stone
Charlie Clown
No way home

Bring on the headless horses
Wherever they may roam
Shiver and say the words
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it
Then I'm gonna break it
Till it falls apart
Hating all the faking
And shaking while you're breaking
My brittle heart
Brittle heart
Brittle heart
And our little heart
Goes

Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam

A truley GREAT song.........

[lukecollyer]

One of my favourite songs from a teenager....however, even then I didn't understand a single word of what they were singing - quite, quite nonsense.

But still classic

[Riccsohun]

@karziflora covering something totally equals the lack of originality. yeah. not like it's a sign of respect to the original authors. /sarcasm

[23franzk]

Its just a wonderful song and it takes me back to a time so much better than the shitty present.

I liked the demo of this better called "Jimmy Brown".

80's music. top banana's

@tonguekisser89 As far as I'm aware, they didn't do a fullcover, but they have drawn a lot of inspiration from this song, and they encorporated the "bring on the new messiah, wherevever he may raom, first i'm gonna make it, then i'm gonna break it til it falls apart" etc into a performance of Human at the EMA's in Liverpool in 2008 and Brandon Flowers did a sort of tribute to the song on his album "Flamingo" in a song called "Jilted Lovers and Broken Hearts" in which there are some similarities

[tonguekisser89]

the killers covered it? really? i cant find any similarities :S not the sound and neither the song text xD

[tonguekisser89]

[serchyissexy]

[karziflora]
