Lady Harlot
Lyrics
Seven angels with seven bowls came
Babylon woman - on her forehead was her name
The beast was swaying all covered in mud
She was as drunk on a cup of their blood
The waters stirred with rich jewels and pearls
The sweet dancing forms of seven naked girls
Five have now fallen and one bears the ring
The land has been lost for the latest sworn king
And forever and ever till time is no more
We live in the shadows beneath the great whore
The city of gold shines in purple and scarlet
And all must adore the supreme Lady Harlot
Now multitudes suffer, their curses extreme
Protests and riots, their placards blaspheme
The flesh that is burning, the heat of her fire
She laughs at their pain in her stately attire
She's riding the beast and she's shouting her lies
She's walking on water and she's toasting her rise
Well, ten horns are poking, the saints all despair
Greed and desire are entwined in her hair
And forever and ever till time is no more
We live in the shadows beneath the great whore
The city of gold shines in purple and scarlet
And all must adore the supreme Lady Harlot
Now and forever like waves on the shore
We live in the shadows beneath the great whore
The city of gold shines in purple and scarlet
And all must adore the supreme Lady Harlot
