Grant Lee Buffalo - LADY GODIVA AND ME lyrics

rate me

She rides unclothed through the streets of Coventry

Upon a great cockhorse hair to her knees

I wore a Minotaur's Mask and I played the Moon Cow

I was the last to see her anyhow

No one's gonna lay eyes to see

Lady Godiva and me

Peeping Tom watched the whole thing from the sidelines

Till the Peeping Tom's peeping had stricken poor Peeping Tom blind

Even those things that we know can't be seen with two eyes

And all those who look her over are surely to die

No one's gonna lay eyes to see

Lady Godiva and me

Burn up the fields of your hallowed fuel

Hotter than you ought to be

Bury my bones in the stinking sands

Casino for the world to see

I got the mean streak

I got the mean streak

I got the mean streak

The folks uptown they live on meat

The things they say I can't repeat

When you're walking down there

Down there

No one's gonna lay eyes to see

Lady Godiva and me
