Kate Bush Lyrics
 | | The British chanteuse first came into the spotlight when she was only 16, after a friend of her father's took some of her recordings to Pink Floyd's Dave Gilmour. He was so captivated by otherworldly visions that he financed a series of demo recordings that led to a rather atypical record deal with EMI. In an unusual move, the U.K. entertainment monolith decided not to record the eccentric singer immediately; instead they financed a series of lessons to improve her already-inventive writing style, as well as her singing and dancing. It was clear the lessons paid off: Bush's very first single, "Wuthering Heights," a three minute recap of Emily Bronte's disquieting gothic classic, topped the U.K. charts in 1978, making her an overnight sensation and sending her subsequent album, The Kick Inside, to the No. 3 position, selling over a million copies in the U.K. alone. Her next album, Lionheart, reached No. 6 on the charts, and while it wasn't quite the sensation that its predecessor was, the record established her as one of the more inventive and risk-taking artists extant. Her spectral beauty, excessive stage shows -- which often contained nearly 20 costume changes -- extravagant mime work and over-the-top set designs spawned her long run (which continues to this day) as an object of cult devotion.
In 1980, Bush returned to the upper reaches of the charts with a more experimental offering, Never For Ever, which found the singer not only arranging her own material, but also co-producing the album. It yielded three hits ("Breathing," "Army Dreamers" and the ethereal "Babooshka"), and it displayed a compositional density and complexity not found in her earlier work. The Dreaming (1982) took her into a new realm altogether, moving the singer out of mainstream pop and into darker terrain. The self-produced offering was far less melodic, with jagged rhythms and atonal chants. It was clear from this point on that Bush would never again be pigeonholed as merely a charming, ethereal singer. Hounds of Love (1985) reinforced that: it finds the singer at the peak of her powers, showcasing her burgeoning talents as a writer, producer and singer, as she weaves Arthurian legend with Jungian psychology, creating what would be her master work. After such a prodigious effort, Bush took an extended hiatus and didn't return until 1989, with The Sensual World, a wonder-filled yet shambolic affair, what with Celtic harps, whips, uilleann pipes and a soliloquy from James Joyce's Ulysses woven into the title song. The album showed Bush to be a brave, provocative and atavistic artist.
Unfortunately, Bush's output has since dwindled. Her only release in recent years was 1993's The Red Shoes. Ostensibly christened after the movie of the same name, the album was dedicated to her mother, who had just died. While emotions run high on the collection, it is nowhere near as strong as some of her earlier stu |

Kate Bush Song Lyric:
Waking The Witch
Wake Up
A good morning ma'am, your early morning call
You must wake up
Wake up
Wake up, man
Wake up child, pay attention
C'mon, wake up
Wake up, love
You shouldn't make the night, but see your little lights alive
Stop your lying and sleeping in bed! Get up!
(C'mon! Your ma needs a shower)
little light
Can you not see that little light up there?
Where?
There?
Where?
Over here...
You still in bed?
Wake up you sleepy head
We are of the going water and gone, we are of the water, and the holy land of water...
Don't you know you've got to wake up?
Look whose hear to see you...
...listen to me...help me baby...talk to me, baby...tell them...listen to me...help me
You won't burn
Red red roses
You won't bleed
Pinks and posies
Confess to me girl
Red red roses
Go down
Spiritus sanctus in nomine...
Spiritus sanctus in nomine...
Spiritus sanctus in nomine...
Spiritus sanctus in nomine...
Poor little thing
Red red roses
The blackbird
Pinks and posies
Wings in the water
Red red roses
Go down
Pinks and posies
Deus et dei domino...
Deus et dei domino...
Deus et dei domino...
Deus et dei domino...
What is it child?
Bless me father, bless me father, for I have sinned...ugh
red red roses
Help me baby, listen to me, listen to me, tell them baby
red whole rose
Help me baby
Don't you know?
I question your innocence
This black bird...
...is a stone around my neck
HA! Damn you woman..AH! Ugh!
This black bird...
...is a stone around my neck
What say you good people?
Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!
This black bird....
I am responsible for your actions!
Whoa....
Not guilty!
...help this black bird.
Wake of the Witch
Get out of the waves. Get out of the water.
Get This Ringtone
