Description her lovers queued up in the hallway
I heard them scratching at the door
I tried to tell her
about Marx and Engels, God and Angels
I don't really know what for
but she looked good in ribbons

--Sisters of Mercy, "Ribbons"

i've always liked the double meaning of that song
[& most of their others]
have you ever read it as suggesting he's (thinking of) slicing her up?

once in the city
i saw razorwire painted on the wall in an alley

so i wrote above it
'flowers on the razor wire'

when i returned the next week
they'd painted in the flowers

red poppies

thankyou

Yeah, I'd always kindof assumed that looking "good in ribbons" was referring to the condition of her body rather than what she was wearing.

Now, the meaning behind most of the rest of their stuff, I won't even venture to guess. ;}
