O Baby Lyrics


The cracks in the ground grin up at me
Even the creases in my shoes smile up at me
Thought it would end in tragedy
But I'm swimming around in your glory
O Baby O maybe
I'm the lost and found
Look at the stars they're raining down
Even these jewels want to kiss your crown
Don't be afraid it's just your face
Has that effect on heavens' treasure case
O Baby O maybe
You're a paragon
I haven't felt this way before
Impossible to ask for more
Unanswered prayers that went before
Lie like leaves upon the floor
Hang all the world and universe
When I'm with you they always seem perverse
I'm in a state of weightlessness
When I inhale your angel breath
O Baby O maybe
I'm the lost and found

O Baby Song Chart
  • This sunny tune was possibly the last song the Banshees ever worked on. "It's so up and poppy," Siouxsie commented to Mojo, "an unguarded moment when I sound happy."
  • The video was shot by John Hillcoat who later directed The Proposition and The Road. It was filmed at a children's beauty pageant in Arizona. "All these young girls with plastered smiles and make-up was a bit yuck," Siouxsie told Mojo. "So if you watch the song with the video, the whole thing has a perversity to it." And I got to play this Bette Davis/Baby Jane character."
