Disclaimer: I do not own South Park or the song "Henry-lee" by Nick Cave
Thought I'd add to the masses of K2 and Style out there.
This is the girl's lyrics
This is the guy's lyrics
And normal writing is Kyle or Kenny. Kenny is the girl and Kyle is the guy
Enjoy!
Get down, get down, little henry lee
And stay all night with me
You won't find a girl in this damn world
That will compare with me
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la laLa la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
"C'mon Kyle, you know you want it". Right now I'm in the process of begging my best friend and the love of my life to stay with me. I needed him. He was like the oxygen I breathe, although I know I couldn't come back from a broken heart like I can come back from death. Just one night Ky, just one night and I'll prove that you should be with me". The look on his face told me he was fast slipping away from me. I needed to try harder...he was mine.
I can't get down and I won't get down
And stay all night with thee
For the girl I have in that merry green land
I love far better than thee
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la laLa la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
"Kenny you know I can't" My best friend before me looked broken, on the floor, gazing up at me with those puppy dog eyes, begging. He whimpered, adding to the kicked puppy façade.
"Ken, a few months ago I may have said yes…But I'm with Stan. I'm happy" Those blue eyes were relentless.
She leaned herself against a fence Just for a kiss or two
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
La la la la laLa la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
I kneeled down to Kenny's level. A kiss couldn't hurt could it? Surely even Stan would understand. It was a gesture of acceptance. My lips locked with his salty, tear stained ones. I closed my eyes trying to convey the emotions I felt through my lips. I felt a pricking by my heart. And another and another. I broke from the kiss to see crimson staining my shirt along with many holes where the little pen knife in Kenny's hands had stabbed me. And the last thing my eyes ever fell upon was his beautiful blue eyes. So full of love and resentment.
Come take him by his lilly-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him in this deep deep well
Which is more than one hundred feet
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la laLa la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
Stark's pond. The deepest body of water anywhere near South Park. And this was to be the final resting place of my beloved ginger. I chucked his lifeless form and it shattered the thin layer of ice on the surface of the lack. His lily white face staring through the dark water as it was sucked deeper. I'd never forget those emerald eyes.
Lie there, lie there, little henry lee
Till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
La la la la laLa la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
"I'm sorry Ky, but you picked the wrong boy"
I sat at the edge of the lake. I was paying my respects. I mean, this was kind of like his funeral, his last send off. I smiled remembering him, the reasons I fell in love with him.
My smile only got wider as I heard Stan's, far-off voice that can only carry in the night. He was calling for Kyle.
Well guess what Stan. You'll be calling forever.
You don't even know how long ago I started this…
