Noel’s Lament Lyrics:

 

In my life, I was Noel Gruber who worked at Taco Bell in Uranium City, Saskatchewan. But, in my dreams I played a different role. I was Monique Gibeau in post-war France.

A hooker with a heart of black charcoal
I write poems to burn by firelight
Drink champagne and guzzle gin
Good girls call me “The Town Bicycle”
Don’t knock it ’till you’ve tried my life of sin

Oh, Claude, my pimp, knows never mess with me
Last prick did that faded quick to black
I have no idea where to find him, officer
But, if you do, please mention that
I’d like to have returned the pretty knife
That I stuck ten times in his back!

For I sing songs until the break of dawn
I embrace a new man every night
My life’s one never ending carnival

A world of boozy-floozy flashing lights
I want to be that f*cked up girl!

He said, “I think I am in love with you”
I’ve heard that lie a million times before
Oh, tonight I give into the fantasy
Take love when you can, when you’re a whore

For I sing songs until the break of dawn
I embrace a new man every night
My life’s one never ending carnival
A world of boozy-floozy flashing lights
I want to be that f*cked up girl

So now I sell my love for Opium
In some rat-infested Chinese dive
At night I burn myself with cigarettes
Just to somehow prove I’m still alive

Eight months later, I catch typhoid flu
Kicked out, I see the ugly light of day
Dying in an alley, a priest kneels down to me

My child, do you have any final words to the lord you’d like to say?
Oui, tell Him that, like Him I choose to burn out rather than fade away

For I sing songs until the break of dawn
I embrace a new man every night
My life’s one never ending carnival
A world of boozy-floozy flashing lights
For I sing songs until the break of dawn
I embrace a new man every night
My life’s one never ending carnival

A world of boozy-floozy flashing lights
I want to be that f*cked up girl
I wanna be that f*cked up
Girl..

Broken heart, a flash of gin
Tattooed with a safety pin
Teeth all stained with nicotine
Running nylons, shattered dreams
Super crusty, holy terror
Wild eyes and black mascara
Broken heart, a flash of gin
Tattooed with a safety pin
Teeth all stained with nicotine
Running nylons, shattered dreams
Super crusty, holy terror
Wild eyes and black mascara

If I could have just one dream-
I’d be that f*cked up girl!
Hey!
