PJ Harvey – The Nightingale

  General Comment:The Nightingale
  
  I have heard the sound of your call
  I have chosen your path
  I joined your caravan
  We called you the Nightingale
  I remember how excited we were
  The best of life lay ahead for us
  We marched on wrapped in your song
  For you I gave my five–year–old son
  I felt him behind me
  I felt him helping me
  Every one of us will go to paradise
  He sang to the soldiers day and night
  We called him the Nightingale
  Get ready, get ready, get ready
  Has untold stings where angels around me
  Has untold the stings became angels around me
  Has untold stings crashed the vans angels around me
  Has untold stings we’re like angels around me
  
  PJ Harvey – Vocals, Auto Harp
  John Parish – Drums, Percussion, Rhodes

    I just wanted to say a thousand thank you's for the link to the special edition of the booklet for LES. Better than the US version here in states. Has more pictures and illustrations. Thank you again

  General Comment:Is the second part:
  
  As untoned steams/Were angels around me/As untoned steams/Became angels around me/
  As untoned steams/Crushed these angels around me/As untoned steams/Were like angels around me

    Well, it seems that it's "Heads on top of sticks were like angels around me"
