To Keep My Love Alive |
I’ve been married, and married, and often I’ve sighed |
«I'm never a bridesmaid, I’m always a bride» |
I never divorced them, I hadn’t the heart |
Yet remember these sweet words, «'till death do us part» |
I married many men, a ton of them |
Because I was untrue to none of them |
Because I bumped off every one of them |
To keep my love alive |
Sir Paul was frail, he looked a wreck to me |
At night he was a horse’s neck to me |
So I performed an appendectomy |
To keep my love alive |
Sir Thomas had insomnia, he couldn’t sleep at night |
I bought a little arsenic, he’s sleeping now all right |
Sir Philip played the harp, I cussed the thing |
I crowned him with his harp to bust the thing |
And now he plays where harps are just the thing |
To keep my love alive |
To keep my love alive |
I thought Sir George had possibilities |
But his flirtations made me ill at ease |
And when I’m ill at ease, I kill at ease |
To keep my love alive |
Sir Charles came from a sanitorium |
And yelled for drinks in my emporium |
I mixed one drink, he’s in memorium |
To keep my love alive |
Sir Francis was a singing bird, a nightingale, that’s why |
I tossed him off my balcony, to see if he, could fly |
Sir Atherton indulged in fratricide |
He killed his dad and that was patricide |
One night I stabbed him by my mattress-side |
To keep my love alive |
To keep my love alive |
To keep my love alive |
