[00:00.00]Annie's Yellow Bag - Gwyneth Herbert
[00:08.28]Little Annie has a yellow bag
[00:10.82]
[00:11.89]Given to her by her sometime dad who would say
[00:15.49]
[00:18.15]It'll keep the ghosts away
[00:19.95]
[00:22.53]Silver bangles and a popped balloon
[00:25.16]
[00:26.14]Ruby lipstick and a postcard of the moon
[00:30.84]
[00:32.61]She'll be leaving soon
[00:33.74]
[00:36.80]Oh Annie where'd you sleep last night
[00:39.41]
[00:39.92]Oh Annie hold your head up high
[00:43.70]Oh Annie won't you hold on tight
[00:47.09]To your yellow bag your yellow bag your yellow bag
[00:49.69]
[00:58.93]Little Annie sets her beret right
[01:01.20]
[01:02.43]Meets the cosmonauts by candlelight to conceive
[01:06.85]
[01:08.77]The music helps her breathe
[01:09.88]
[01:13.01]She builds a song and then she climbs Inside
[01:15.84]
[01:16.46]Her hips rotating like a fairground ride In the sun
[01:21.17]
[01:23.06]She's not the only one
[01:24.65]
[01:27.30]Oh Annie where'd you sleep last night
[01:30.61]Oh Annie hold your head up high
[01:34.03]Oh Annie won't you hold on tight
[01:37.70]To your yellow bag your yellow bag your yellow bag
[01:40.12]
[01:41.93]And all the ghosts are saying lie down lie down
[01:45.70]And all the kids are saying jump up jump up
[01:49.63]And all the songs are saying kick out kick out
[01:53.75]But all the ghosts are saying lie down lie down
[01:58.94]
[02:06.64]Little Annie has a yellow bag
[02:08.82]
[02:09.84]Tatty tickets from the gig at vanity loft
[02:14.00]
[02:16.82]That's when the room took off
[02:17.98]
[02:20.69]She's got a past to give the boys a scare
[02:23.33]
[02:24.12]She's got the future In her sights but stares at her feet
[02:29.18]
[02:30.69]They never feel the heat
[02:32.96]
[02:35.09]Oh Annie where'd you sleep last night
[02:38.26]Oh Annie hold your head up high
[02:41.75]Oh Annie won't you hold on tight
[02:45.18]To your yellow bag your yellow bag your yellow bag
[02:47.69]
[02:49.46]And all the ghosts are saying lie down lie down
[02:53.19]And all the kids are saying jump up jump up
[02:57.35]And all the songs are saying kick out kick out
[03:01.42]And all the boys are saying hop In hop In
[03:05.39]And all the spooks are saying walk on walk on
[03:09.54]And all the junkies saying turn off turn off
[03:13.44]And all the sniffs are saying rack up rack up
[03:17.37]And all the ghosts are saying lie down lie down
[03:22.82]Oh Annie where'd you sleep last night
