If you're looking for the perfect example of how The Cure can layer pop hooks into commercially unacceptable music, Bird Mad Girl is it. The song is held together by a clean, even catchy bass line and twinkly piano, but Smith's incomprehensible lyrics and background layers of exotic instruments ensure you'll never hear it on daytime radio. Smith often includes literary allusions in his work and Bird Mad Girl was inspired by the Dylan Thomas poem "Love In The Asylum."
