lyrics

And I saw the whore
And she was terrible to see
As I watched her legs
Being carried by the beast
Who got oh, so hungry now
And had seven mouths to feed.

Seven kings
for seven crowns
She was all dressed in red
Seven angels will beg to convince
If flesh is sin
Than my will has deceased

And I tell you this story is true
You can believe this much
She'll come and go
Her charm at the best
She'll take the flesh and the devil the rest

And the beast who was no more
Was also the eighth
And it's from the seven
That shall be done
The doom, the doom, the doom,
of us.

And I tell you this story is true
You can believe this much
She'll come and go
Her charm at the best
She'll take the flesh and the devil the rest
