In which Nick Currie demonstrates his extensive knowledge of sexually explicit literature throughout history.

The backing track to this song is a slightly sped-up version of the Zombies' classic “Time of the Season,” complete with breathy “ah!” accents from a female backing vocalist.

Bluestocking Lyrics

I love you, you're so well read
Blue stockings well spread
Your carnal knowledge knocks me dead

I love you, you're so well read
Blue stocking give head
I love you, you've read:

Ovid, Anaïs Nin, the Song of Solomon, The Perfumed Garden and Georges Bataille's The Story of the Eye
The Petronius Satyricon, the Arabian Nights, the Decameron
The Marquis de Sade's 120 Days
And Serge Gainsbourg singing songs to Sweet Jane B

I love you, you've read:

Sacher-Masoch and DHL
Portnoy's Complaint and mine as well
Frank Harris, The Life and Loves
Lusts of a Moron, Wings of a Dove
The Latins of the Silver Age
The triolets of Paul Verlaine
Lautreamont and G. Cabrera Infante
Mishima Yukio and Sweet Jane B

I love you, you're so well read
Blue stocking give head
Whisper what they said:

'Le silence de la chambre est profond
Aucun bruit n'arrive plus
Ni des routes, ni de la ville, ni de la mere
La nuit est a son terme, partout limpide et noir
La lune a disparu
Ils ont peur
Il ecoute, les yeux au sol
Son silence effrayante
Il parle de sa beauté
Les yeux fermees
Il peut revoir encore l'image dans sa perfection'
