Madonna of the Scorpions [contrasting-chorus verse-repeating dual- or triple-bridge-type. Entoned for metal]
[Intro. Spoken]
Drip, drip, drop,
Here, in the blood of the snake.
Ice in ivy veins; she drinks
As the whole world shakes.
[Verse]
So, butterfly, you think you've found
A place to rest your wings for now?
On my back? Right beneath my stinger,
Under my itchy trigger-finger?
What makes you black, you restless
Swallowtail?
You think a little bit of pain is gonna make you well?
I've got something for you,
If you'll just stay still!
[Chorus]
I was born to bite the beautiful things,
Lepidoptera!
I am the queen of the wicked sting--
The Madonna of the Scorpions wants your blood!
[Verse]
Well, they made you act a little strange--
One small mouth to feed and then these mother-fucking changes:
Soupy guts, and now you want to be a beautiful fairy? What?
I know where you were born.
You are the worm that tried to be reformed.
But everyone is beyond saving,
And the Madonna of the Scorpions can't help her cravings!
[Chorus]
I was born to bite the beautiful things
With their sparkly tiaras.
I am the queen of the Blackthorne crown,
And you're a pretty cantata that needs to be drowned out!
[Bridge 1, Instrumentals + Vocals]
I want something pretty, too!
Let me crawl into my cage!
And I'll come out of it just like you
Except with dripping fangs!
[Bridge 2, Acapella segue]
Oh, the dimples!
Ain't she cute?
But the Madonna of the Scorpions
Is extra brutal!
[Instrumentals, Bridge 3 or Verse]
[Outro]
Well, the story that said
I'd sting myself to death
Was a story that I wrote
So that the butterfly that comes my way
Won't never go home--
She won't never go home.
