Virginia Tech 的悲剧已经过去一个多星期了。有一个遇难的叫 Henry Lee 学生看上去很象华裔，仔细看新闻才知道是越南人。觉得这个名字很熟，但是直到看到未名空间上这个帖子才想起这是 Nick Cave 一首歌的名字。在帖子里 Ripple 说道：
（这首歌）讲的也是关于死亡的悲惨故事。一个叫henry Lee的少年被妓女杀，抛尸荒野。一阵阵凄风中，一只小鸟停落在他的尸体上。。。creepy! 不过也只有nick cave能把这么creepy的故事写的这么凄美。

歌词：
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 la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
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 la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
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 la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
Come take him by his lilly-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him in this deep, deep well
That’s more than one hundred feet
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
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 la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
