You, dangling, swinging

Hanging, spinning, aftermath

Your soft white flesh turns past me, slaked with blood

Your evil eyes more damning than a demon's curse

Your lovely body, soon caked with mud

As I carry you to your grave, my arms your hearse

You stand before me, defenceless

Your stare unchanging, silent, cold, intense sears my brain

Hey, hey

Drip, drip, ugh, from your sagging lip

Liquid red down your body spread

Your soft breast glistens, your deep navel fountains

Your shadow over chair

Your shadow over chair

Your shadow over chair like a plane over mountains

Hey, drip, drip

Hey, drip, drip

Hey, drip, drip

In a clearing

Where the sunrays dance amongst the forest's dense secrets

You will softly rest

Your pale beauty enshrined by the sweet glade

Your body at peace

Even the earth will fill the crack where entered my blade

Where entered my blade


[Indistinct chanting and scatting]

Yeah, shall I cut you down?

Yes, 'twould be a last physical communion

I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle

I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle

I'll not hurt you, I'll not hurt you

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, I'll not hurt you

No, no, no, no

Not hurt you, not hurt you, not hurt you, not hurt you

All right now

Drip, drip, ugh, from your sagging lip

Liquid red down your body spread

Your soft breast glistens, your deep navel fountains

Your shadow over chair

Your shadow over chair

Your shadow over chair like a plane over mountains, yeah

Hey, drip, drip

Hey, drip, drip

Hey, drip, drip

La-la-la-la-la-la-la
