The Lady Lies

The Man Steps Out in the Moonlight

At the Sound of a Scream From Below.

He Thinks He Is a Warrior

So He Picks Op His Sword and Goes.

From the Mouth of the Monster

He Rescues the Maiden Fair.

But We Know She's a Demon

Come to Lure Him to the Demon's Lair.

Through Restless Foliage and Tall Trees He Leads

To a House in a Clearing, a Place in Her Fear She Calls Home.

'come With Me, I Need You,

I Fear the Dark and I Live All Alone.

I'll Give You Wine and Food Too

And Something Special After If You Like.'

And Though His Body Bids Him

To Enter in With Her,

There Was Something in Her Manner

That His Mind Could Not Ignore.

For Who Knows What Magic Takes Place in His World?

So He Just Thanks Her Kindly Preparing to Go On His Way.

'come With Me, I Need You,

I Fear the Dark and I Live All Alone.

I'll Give You Wine and Food Too

And Something Special After If You Like.

Come to My Garden,

Taste the Fruits and the Spices of Love.

You Can't Resist Me,

I'm the Kind That Your Dreams Tell You Of.'

'so Glad You Could Make It

We Had Everything Arranged.

So Glad You Saw Fit to Pay a Call.'

Some Men Never Listen,

Others Never Learn,

But Why This Man Did As He Did

Only He Will Ever Know.

He Knew He Was Walking

Into a Wailing Trap,

Neatly Set Up For Him

With a Bait So Richly Wrapped.

So He Went Inside There to Take On What He Found

But He Never Escaped Them, For Who Can Escape What He Desires?

'come With Me, I Need You,

I Fear the Dark and I Live All Alone.

I'll Give You Wine and Food Too

And Something Special After If You Like.'
