The Wives of Anne Boleyn

I'm so lucky to have somebody
who wants me for her very own
when all of the over lovers I've had
just wanted to take my crown
don't come 'round axeing for me
I'm not home to a Henry
I won't pay your taxes on my head
but try my chances with your other lady
so I'm sorry, old man, that I gave you a girl
but the way things are now, they're taking over your world
you just keep on growing fatter as your options grow thin
now meet the wives of Anne Boleyn
I always knew that my time would come
only after all was said and done
he thought that he was man enough to kill a queen
but my love for life and women lives on
don't throw your big money at me
I'm not running a hen-house
you're back in the habit-box
but I'm not home to a headlouse
so I'm sorry, old man, that I gave you a girl
but the way things are now, they're taking over your world
you just keep on growing fatter as your options grow thin
now meet the wives of Anne Boleyn

bring on the night
bring out the wolf
(here comes the night
here comes the wolf)
lay out the seats
prop up the steeple
(pray for the empty seats
pray for the people)
run wolf run wolf run
come the hunter with his gun
hide wolf hide wolf hide
in the pale moonlight
do not go gently
into that goodnight
you know the tale
of the wolf's dying tears
the hunter he searched
in the forests for years
he came to a well
that would grant his desires
he threw in his silver and cried
“I will not rest until I've killed a werewolf”
run man run man run
come the werewolf with his bite
hide man hide man hide
in the dark of night
do not go gently
into sleep's embrace
the day the beast
tore through the fences
and every last shot that
the hunter fired missed
great shining claws
tore the gun from out his hands
sinking his glistening teeth
into tender shoulder
and the townsfolk don't know
that a werewolf's bite
will turn anyone it does not kill
so they patch him up
and the surgeons wait
till he awakes one restless night
run wolf run wolf run
run for home and find your gun
hide wolf hide wolf hide
in the untamed wilds
with your silver bullet
you pierce your heart
you threw in your silver coin
breaking the water level
crushing your tender heart
trying to beat the devil
your heart beats silver now
beating a dying rhythm
heaven seems far away
die hoping you're forgiven

the night is quiet, but I cannot sleep
tomorrow waits, strains at the bars
there'll be no harvest, no sow nor reap
thoughts dissipate in the gleam of the stars
I see the murder streak across the sky
and hope that maybe some day
one of them will catch me in a pearly eye
and land on my windowsill out of the grey
I've waited for so long, it seemed odds were against me
I'd wait a thousand years for them to come down and meet me
I'd be the perfect mate, caught up in a flight of fancy
for such crows are men at night, and they are called the Tling-Tsi
I see the shape in the backyard
flex! tense! stretch!
he's preparing to change, and I'm
thrilled, though it's strange
I slide open the window
and he dives in to take me
he's so beautiful now
and I will do what he'll ask of me

slip yr makeout jeans
over yr hips
make sure they can see
you know y've got cake
they'll call it a super-
stition, but wait a while
soon, lucky in love, they fit
like a glove, and you're away
drive from the passenger seat
your feet on the steering wheel
you've carved out your niche
in your driver's heart
dance into the driveway
streetlights of red and white
cold night, you're on the make, yr jeans
hug your thighs in their rough embrace

run-nin' through your empty mind
in a love-drunk haze - will we find
it's just a phase?
you love me like you're gon-na die
I don't claim to know, no, but I
don't want to go
shower... (must respect unwritten ruling)
shower... (mouth agape in gasp and drooling)
shower... (underneath a waterfall, and—)
shower... (now you think you've got it all, oh)
you drag me through these streets of stone
though I scream and cry, you alone
decide I die
let me say my peace at last
though you just can’t wait for the chance
to show your hate
shower… (stand by me, my fire’s still cooling)
shower… (how I once defied my schooling)
shower… alcohol’s no substitute for
water... deign to call me daughter, be still my heart
