i heard the story of the seven veils
i heard so many lurid tales
i heard the one about the rock and the roll
lost alone by the gallows pole.
All washed up
on the Marie celest
all these pirates do digest
Aztec, Inca will you fight or flea
cause Cleopatra she has nothing on me.
On the grape vine lies they spread
seventeen women sleeping in my bed
a bottler of Bud and a whisky chaser
whats the secret of the human race sir?
Take a vow to love me true
dont ever leave me
dont make me blue
white satin lover child wild and free
dont divulge your dreams to me.
stay away from the seven veils
and forget them lurid tales
cause the lies they continue toi spread
you wont escape them even when you're dead.
