Nothing more to add about this song's meaning, but the lyrics aren't complete nor exact. Here are what I believe is slightly better. Please bare with my English.
-- Lyrics:
In the cold, the coldest of nights
The fire I light, to warm my bones
I've had enough, of the dreadful cold
And from the flames, appears Salome
I stand before her amazed
As she dances and demands
The head of John the Baptist on a plate
In the morning, shaken and disturbed
From under soft white fur
I see the dust in the morning bright sets the room alive
And by the telly appears Salome
I stand before her amazed
As she dances and demands
The head of Isadora Duncan on a plate
Oh, it's Salome
Oh, it's Salome
In the cold, the coldest of nights
The fire I light, to warm my bones
I've had enough, of the dreadful cold
And from the flames, appears Salome
I stand before her amazed
As she dances and demands
The head of any bastard on a plate
-- Corrections:
Added "the" before coldest, first line
Changed "Oh love, had enough of ..." to "I've had enough". It's believe it's what P. Doherty says
John the Baptist is a proper name, needs capital letters
Changed Isidora Duncan to Isadora Duncan, her actual name
