A Cautionary Tale lyrics |
|||||
|
Faustus begin thine incantations, Take good care to draw thy circle true, By God must you prevail - For if you fail these Demons make a meal of you. Your soul shall be their meat - A kingly feast for them to eat, Beware your future at hand, Alas for thou art dammed. GOOD ANGEL: "Faustus seek repentance, ]abjure this evil art, Cease this wretched wickedness And cleans thy foolish heart, For the evil that once served you Has made of you a slave, And transformed your bed of roses' To a premature grave." Then in a mighty flash of light Before thee Mephistopheles appears. FAUSTUS: "I charge thee go and change thy shape, For you fill my soul with fear. Now swift-as-hell back to the fire |
Return an old Franciscan Friar." MEPHISTOPHELES: "Mortal command me while you can, For surely thou art dammed." BAD ANGEL: "Faustus be thou resolute In what thou wilst perform, Ignore these righteous idiots - Their trinity to scorn, For years of depravation you receive eternal life, But fame and wealth and maidens-fair Are by far the better price." FAUSTUS: "Temptations all around me, Is there nowhere I can turn? Hellfire is all about me, Now I know that I shall burn, I face excommunication for the error Of my ways - To burn in Hell for all my days. Bell, book and candle, Candle, book, bell, Forwards and backwards |
To damn me to Hell. Jehova I beg thee have mercy on my soul. Be gone foul beast that stands before me, My God! The midnight hour chimes, Oh Lord have mercy he comes for me, I haven't got much time. I am awake this is no dream, I cry - but terror takes my scream, And now my future is at hand, Also for I am dammed." GOOD ANGEL: "Think for just one moment And I'm sure that you will see, The moral of this story - That what shall be must be. He who gives his soul to Hell, Must dare to pay the price, He versed in divinity must Live a noble life - OR ELSE HE IS DAMNED! |
