(Reed) |
|
|
|
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather |
|
Whiplash girlchild in the dark |
|
Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him |
|
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart |
|
|
|
Downy sins of streetlight fancies |
|
Chase the costumes she shall wear |
|
Ermine furs adorn the imperious |
|
Severin, Severin awaits you there |
|
|
|
I am tired, I am weary |
|
I could sleep for a thousand years |
|
A thousand dreams that would awake me |
|
Different colors made of tears |
|
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/v/velvet+underground/venus+in+furs_20143887.html ] |
|
Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather |
|
Shiny leather in the dark |
|
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you |
|
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart |
|
|
|
Severin, Severin, speak so slightly |
|
Severin, down on your bended knee |
|
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly |
|
Taste the whip, now plead for me |
|
|
|
I am tired, I am weary |
|
I could sleep for a thousand years |
|
A thousand dreams that would awake me |
|
Different colors made of tears |
|
|
|
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather |
|
Whiplash girlchild in the dark |
|
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake him |
|
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart |
