Lady Eleanor Songtext

von Alan Hull

Hull

Bashee playing magician sitting lotus on the floor,
Belly dancing beauty with a power driven saw.
Had my share of nightmares, didn't think there could be much more,
Then in walked Rodrick Usher with the Lady Eleanor.

She tied my eyes with ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
I gazed with trouble vision on an old four poster bed.
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head
And bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead.

But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
All right, Lady Eleanor
I'm all right where I am.

She gazed with loving beauty like a mother to a son,
Like living, dying, seeing, being all rolled into one.
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones,
The same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home.

But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
All right, Lady Eleanor
I'm all right where I am.

Then creeping on towards me, licking lips with tongues of fire
A host of golden demons screaming lust and base desire
And when it seemed for certain that the screams could get no higher
I heard a voice above the rest screaming 'You're liar'.

But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
All right, Lady Eleanor
I'm all right where I am.
