Night Flight to Kabul

Mark Lanegan

4

Is there gold, is there gold in Kabul?

I′ve been there in a nest of snakes

I've been there as a blackout artistEveryone trying to take my place

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

I was there as a midnight watchman

I was there for a masquerade

I was there as a makeup artist

Everyone trying to point the blame

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

I sawed myself in halves

I grew myself a pair of hooves

You gave to me this gift

I love you still

Alone I drift

Is there gold, gold in Kabul?

I′ve been there in a suicide vest

I've been there with the hangman rising

Everyone trying to take the piss

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

I sawed myself in halves

I grew myself a pair of horns

You gave to me this gift

I love you still

Alone I drift

You can walk from there to China

From state to reptilian state

Holy Americans singing vespers

Convinced that they control somebody's fate

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

I sawed myself in halves

I grew myself a pair of hooves

You gave to me this gift

I love you still

Alone I drift

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

Is there gold?

Is there gold?
