lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woman please, woman please, tell them folks your tale
Of a love foretold that would murderously fail
Tell them stories of the man you once called your groom and pride
Who was secretly in truth, just a wolf without his hide

We were standing in the garden, just among our loved and friends
Thinking how easy it seemed just to pretend
I remember from that night the chaplain’s wedding toast
Delivered in a way more eloquent than most

[Pre-chorus]
He told him make your father proud
Hooray
And then addressed the elated crowd

[Chorus]
And said my brothers there’re no second chances
While Mary Magdalene Dances
He said my son always beware
This blissful disco of sins
He said my sister it isn’t that scary to follow the gospel of Mary
She said my lover together we were
Committing the original sin

[Verse 2]
The lawman came straight through her door
Asking her if there was love for her husband anymore
Wondering if this sweet lass turned to murder to be free
He had heard not long ago of her husband’s violent spree

[Pre-chorus]
But knew he’d make his father proud
Hooray
He thought what a bloodthirsty crowd

The witness stood in oath without an ounce of disgrace
And a look of smug satisfaction on his face
He swore to tell the truth looking up into the skies
And then turned to face the jury with his virtuous disguise

[Chorus]
And said my brothers there’re no second chances
While Mary Magdalene Dances
He said my son always beware
This blissful disco of sins
He said my sister it isn’t that scary to follow the gospel of Mary
She said my lover together we were
Committing the original sin

The crowned in thorns said I’d do you a favor I‘m not a man I’m your savior
Why are you ready to eagerly send this innocent woman to me
The elders of virtue presided my trial but she was the one at my burial
And in her death she’ll rise to the skies
And dance by me and be free (x3)
