You fed the fire all my letters
Like you fed me french fries
And in my dead mouth
Lies the taste that's like the
Look in your dead eyes
Don't give me your expression
Don't even swim with me
I've got the nerve to tell you
You'll never live thru me
Carry me carry me carry me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home
Carry me carry me carry me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home
And like a witness that has
Come to be that's my expression
And though I live through your eyes
I've just lived in one dimension
You wanna let off a gun
Press one hard be hard on
I wonder is your wisdom
Telling you'll never get to you
Carry me carry me carry me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home
Carry me carry me carry me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home
I gave you satisfaction
It's murder here when I'm round
So keep my felt tip impressions and bury me
Never to be found
Carry me carry me carry me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me carry me
I wanna go home
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home
Carry me, bury me
I wanna go home now
Carry me I wanna go home
Carry me yeah
Bury me yeah
Carry me carry me carry me
I wanna go home
Bury me carry me
Carry me bury me
I wanna go home

Neneh Mariann Karlsson was born in Sweden to a Swedish mother and a father from Sierra Leone. Her mother raised her in a commune with her stepfather, jazz musician Don Cherry (father of Eagle Eye Cherry).

She moved to London in the 1980s and immersed herself in the Bristol music scene (where Massive Attack and Portishead would form), getting involved with bands such as The Cherries, The Slits, New Age Steppers, Rip Rig + Panic and Float Up CP.

But it was her collaboration with the duo Morgan-McVey, who released only the one single “Looking Good Diving”, that would be the springboard to launch her into international stardom. The single’s B-side featured Cherry rapping over the A-side’s instrumental tracks with what later became the lyrics to her 1988 debut breakout single “Buffalo Stance” (its music reworked by Bomb The Bass' Tim Simenon) – which reached the top 10 in eleven countries.
