lirik lagu the tattooed lady – peter skellern
shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
i’ve just heard a story that rings in my ears
it’s one of the saddest a soul ever hears
to think of it makes me break out into tears
it deals with a man and his maid
mother eve in the garden of eden
heard the serpent, the same as the lass
and this girl might have turned from temptation except
for a terrible snake in the grass
oh, shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
her downfall began as an innocent thing
her husband went off to go fishing one spring
so she joined her girlfriend to go on a fling
they both went to bathe on the beach
then this artist came up with his paint pot
and his needle to toy with her calf
she allowed him to tinker so he painted a fiend
who was sawing a woman in half
oh, shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
the girl wasn’t bright and the fellow was smart
and now that he’d made such a favourable start
he made her believe she was helping his art
they met every day after that
never once did she think that he loved her
nor did she think that he’d do her harm
till the day that he tattooed in red, white and blue
and he wrote “i love you” on her arm
oh, shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
her husband came home and they instantly kissed
his eyes read the writing from elbow to wrist
he foamed at the mouth and eventually hissed
his rage drove him blinking well barmy
she was hurt by his attitude deeply
and hysterically started to laugh
so she pulled down her stocking and showed him the beast
who was sawing a woman in half
oh, shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
no chance did she have to explain things, for then
he yelled, “never dampen my bathmat again!”
so now she gets tattooed whenever she can
she works in the circus for pay
and her soft epidermis is painted
with the pictures of sailors and such
and if you have a needle, you too can tattoo
on the skin that they all love to touch
oh, shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
oh shame on the man who pursued her
the villain who viciously wooed her
she fell in a faint, so he pulled out his paint
and the first thing she knew he’d tattooed her
