Jezebel

Lyrics

Jezebel was free
 She wouldn't be denied
 With wolves hungry at her feet
 She cursed them with her eyes
 Said "If you kiss me with your teeth
 You will surely die
 I don't want you at my door
 I give my pleasure to the Lord
 I don't want you at my door
 I give my pleasure to the Lord."
 Winter came and autumn died
 There wasn't any rain
 Men went to Jezebel
 To take her for a slave
 Said "If you run away
 We'll chase you to the grave
 Better do as you are told
 Fetch us water from your well
 Better do as you are told
 Fetch us water from your well."
 The sun burned out the sky
 Rivers ceased to flow
 Jezebel would never cry
 She could take it on her own
 Into a bed of fire
 Forced to lie alone
 Said "Though you cut me with a knife
 My blood will never fill your bones
 Though you cut me with a knife
 My blood will never save your soul."
 Jezebel was strong and brave
 Painted like a queen
 She threw her scorn down at the dogs
 Held her head up in defeat
 And from a tower sinking down
 Into eternity
 Said "Though my temple be destroyed
 I give my pleasure to the Lord
 Though my temple be destroyed
 I give my pleasure to the Lord."
