Hear the new Rolling Stones song with The Cure’s Robert Smith
The Rolling Stones released “Divine Intervention”, the new single from their upcoming album “Foreign Tongues”. The track features The Cure’s guitarist and singer Robert Smith, who played electric guitar on the song and also appears on another track from the album that has not yet been released.
Mick Jagger previously said it was the first time the two had met and explained that Smith was invited to play because he happened to be recording at the same studio. Jagger then invited him to contribute to the album.
Hear the new Rolling Stones song with The Cure’s Robert Smith
“Yeah!
Walking down the street in New York City
A sandwich bar at the end of the world at night
I looked up and saw the bare end ass of Scotland
Scrambling to four poles in the sky
Watch them fly!
But meanwhile we just keep on running
Going to the football every Saturday night
Yeah!
Divine intervention
Is out of the question
I go to dance in the flames, yeah
Divine intervention
Is out of the question
Life is a gambling game
It’s a gambling game
Driving down an alley in a rundown part of Hollywood
Saw her neon light up the side of the sign
Flew through, I asked her what’s my future
Well, she threw up and then broke down and cried
Tears in her eyes
But I kept moving on to silver head
To play guitar with a brand-new friend of mine
Yeah!
Divine intervention
Is out of the question
I go to dance in the flames, yeah
‘Cause divine intervention
Is out of the question
Life is a gambling game
It’s a gambling game
Yeah!
Divine intervention
Is out of the question
I go to dance in the flame, yeah
Divine intervention
Won’t give you protection
Life is a gambling game
Yeah
Oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
Mmm, when the walls cave in
And the lights go dim
And I drag you out again
Well, just open your values
And chew on the handle
I’m going out in a blaze
Can we run any faster?
It’s a total disaster
I, I, I’m going down in the flames
Yeah, when they try to arrest you
I’ll come to your rescue
Life is a gambling game”
