Lucy's Talking
Once the Devil came into my kitchen
Once the Devil came into my kitchen
And with a knife an a fork he ate my chicken
Next the Lord came into my bedroom
And drank boozy booze to gimme real satisfaction
The Lord told me "Lucifer's kisses are sins"
The Lord told me "Lucifer's kisses are sins"
So I gave him the bones of my cold turkey
The song "Lucy's Talking" by Kid Loco is a haunting and intriguing piece that tells the story of two supernatural beings who visit the singer at different times. The first being is the Devil who comes into the kitchen and proceeds to eat the singer's chicken with a knife and fork. The second being is the Lord who comes into the bedroom and drinks boozy booze to give the singer real satisfaction. The Lord warns the singer that Lucifer's kisses are sins, to which the singer responds by giving him the bones of their cold turkey.
The song seems to be exploring the duality of good and evil and the strange and unsettling ways in which these opposing forces can manifest in our lives. The fact that the Devil and the Lord both visit the singer suggests that they may be struggling with their own inner demons and conflicting desires. The image of the Devil eating chicken with a knife and fork is particularly striking and seems to symbolize the way in which evil can invade our mundane, everyday lives in unexpected ways. Similarly, the Lord drinking "boozy booze" suggests a kind of hedonism or worldly pleasure that is at odds with traditional religious values.
Overall, "Lucy's Talking" is a thought-provoking and atmospheric song that rewards close listening and interpretation. It raises fascinating questions about the nature of good and evil, and the ways in which these forces can shape and influence our own lives.
