Pristeen Lyrics

Cover art for Pristeen lyrics by Julian Cope

This is from Cope's album Peggy Suicide album, which is about the environmental destruction of the earth. So this song is an allegory, where "Pristeen" represents both a coy young female lover, and Earth.

I have always loved the line, "How much does it take to go down on someone...that you hate?" Vicious. One of Cope's best songs (and he has many great songs), in my opinion.
