| Hey, I just painted up my eyes
|
| And my clothes — are a little big in size
|
| Don’t you think I need elastic stretch waist bands
|
| My husband’s forcing me to wear the pants
|
| 'Cause I’m Jezebel — I’m Israel’s king
|
| So don’t tell me that I’m his wife
|
| Yes I’m Jezebel — I’m the one who really pulls the strings
|
| So don’t tell me 'bout equal rights
|
| Oh … I’m happy enough right here
|
| The moment that I came from Sidon
|
| So many Hebrews have had to run and hide
|
| Can’t do religious things that they hold so dear
|
| It’s not the little king that they fear
|
| If they want to survive, they comply
|
| Oh, I’m Jezebel, and the prophets won’t preach
|
| 'Cause I put them to death when they try
|
| Yes I’m Jezebel — throw the Good Book at me
|
| For unbiblical brutal crimes
|
| Oh … they have a lot to fear
|
| LEAD
|
| Oh … I can make it myself, dear
|
| Someone just rebelled
|
| I just-a fell — hear me yell
|
| There’s not much that’s left of me
|
| Oh, I’m Jezebel — there has been a conspiracy
|
| I took a plunge and I heard a crunch
|
| Oh, I’m Jezebel, where’s the rest of me?
|
| Well, I’ve a hunch dogs just ate me for lunch
|
| Oh, I’m Jezebel — my skull’s all I see
|
| Elijah’s won — it’s over and done
|
| Oh, I’m Jezebel — woe is me
|
| My evil’s done — it’s no fun — perishin'
|
| Oh — I’ve had it, I’m through
|
| Oh — It’s sad but quite true
|
| Oh — I have a lot to fear |
