Lady Godiva and Me Songtext

von Grant Lee Buffalo

She rides unclothed
Through the streets of Coventry
Upon a great cockhorse
Her hair to her knees
I wore a minotaur's mask
And I played the moon cow
I was the last to see her
Anyhow

No one's gonna lay eyes to see
Lady Godiva and Me

Peeping Tom watched the whole thing
From the side lines
Till Peeping Tom's peeping
Had stricken poor Peeping Tom blind
Even the things that we know
Can't be seen with two eyes
And all those who look her over
Are surely to die

No one's gonna lay eyes to see
Lady Godiva and Me

Burn up the fields of your hallowed fuel
Now it's hotter than you ought to be
Bury my bones in the stinking Sands Casino
For the world to see
I got the mean streak
I got the mean streak
The folks uptown
They live on meat
And the things they say
I can't repeat
When you're walking down there
Down there

No one's gonna lay eyes to see
Lady Godiva and Me.
