Why D’Ya Do It? Songtext
von Marianne Faithfull

When I stole a twig from our little nest
And gave it to a bird with nothing in her beak
I had my balls and my brains put into a vice
And twisted around for a whole fucking week

"Why′d ya do it", she said, why'd you let that trash
Get a hold of your cock, get stoned on my hash?

"Why′d ya do it", she said, why'd you let her suck your cock?
Ah, do me a favour, don't put me in the dock
"Why′d ya do it", she said, They′re mine all your tools
You just tied me to the mast of the ship of fools

"Why'd ya do it", she said, when you know it makes me sore
′Cause she had cobwebs up her fanny and I believe in giving to the poor
"Why'd ya do it", she said, Why′d you spit on my snatch?
Are we out of love now, is this just a bad patch?

"Why'd ya do it", she said, Why′d you do what you did?
You drove my ego to a really bad skid

"Why'd you do it", she said, ain't nothing to laugh
You just tore all our kisses right in half!


"Why′d ya do it", she screamed, after all we said
Every time I see your dick, I see her cunt in my bed
"Why′d ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did?
"Why′d ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did?
Betray my little oyster for such a low bid

The whole room was swirling
Her lips were still curling

"Why′d ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did?
"Why′d ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did
"Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did
"Why′d ya do it", she said, "Why'd ya do it", she said
Why′d you do what you did?

Oh, big grey mother, I love you forever
With your barbed wire pussy and your good and bad weather

("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did)
("Why′d ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did)


("Why′d ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did)
("Why′d ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)

("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why'd you do what you did)
("Why′d ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
("Why'd ya do it", she said, why′d you do what you did)
