Yeah, I particularly like his use of the doomy bells at the end of each chorus and throughout the song, denoting some evil presence on the way.
"Lay me low" is brilliant too: I reviewed the album in my journal, and remarked on how Cave writes about how he sees his work being discussed after he's dead, with everyone looking for the scoop and the dirt. I particularly love this line:
"They'll interview some of my teachers
Who'll say I was one of God's sorrier creatures
They'll print informative ten-page features
When I go."
So true!
