Burning Times - SB

Burning Times

Oh, I'd be ashamed if I were you
they didn't make love to the blue tattoo
Your family and friends
now share your bed
What have they said inside your head
As we were one, we split in two
they came between the sheets to prove
You should be ashamed
of me and you

'She's not the one for you,
find something new
and here's one we approve
and we'll still love you'

The Catholic and the Crone
I guess I should have known
but I thought
It didn't matter
our love seemed right at home
I guess you changed your mind
or they did
safety wins
They burned the witch again
I failed the test of time
take me to
confession, but I won't give in
I've done nothing wrong
my love is not a sin
but these are
the burning times

Oh, I'd be ashamed if I were you
they didn't know me like you do
Let a jury of priests
judge a woman in red
Who wins this, a good mind
or good head
They'd be ashamed of a prodigal son
for loving a mother
instead of a nun
Well, they needn't worry
she'll never survive
judgement day's over
she's barely alive

'She's not the one for you,
find something new
and here's one we approve
and we'll still love you'
She can't harm him now,
he's safe at our side
we'll find him a bride
her magic has died....
