"Hedda Gabler" lyrics - JOHN CALE

Hedda Gabler
Had a very funny face
Tired of waiting
Tired of the human race

Like her brother
Sitting in the library
Reading how dear Adolf
Was going to save all Germany

[Chorus:]
Hedda Gabler
She'll go down in history
Hedda Gabler
Down in all her misery

Like her mother
Married to the bank manager
She took the money
Hung him in the closet for fun

[Chorus:]
Hedda Gabler
She'll go down in history
Hedda Gabler
Down in all her misery

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
Hedda Gabler
She'll go down in history
Hedda Gabler
Down in all her misery

[Outro:]
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
Sleep, sleep, sleep, Hedda Gabler
