A Serpent in the Pulpit |
| The morning bell was chiming through the dormitory |
| Time for the nuns to pray the lauds |
| Joan’s bed still empty |
| She ran away, trying to break free |
| The sisters gathered in the chapel |
| They felt something was wrong |
| With empty eyes Margaret bowed her head |
| «There was an accident,» she said |
| But she was telling lies |
| Alice saw it in her eyes |
| Brazen lies without devout disguise |
| Abbess Margaret is a serpent in the pulpit |
| Spreading her evil sway |
| Abbess Margaret is a serpent in the pulpit |
| Bow to her morbid obsession with sin! |
| Margaret: |
| «There's work to do in the churchyard |
| Put sister Joan to rest! |
| Right where the bare headstone stands |
| Even she died by her own hands» |
| Oh she was telling lies |
| Alice saw it in her eyes |
| Brazen lies behind devout disguise |
| Abbess Margaret is a serpent in the pulpit |
| Spreading her evil sway |
| Abbess Margaret is a serpent in the pulpit |
| Bow to her morbid obsession with sin! |
| All the sisters: |
| Now earth to earth in convent walls, to earth in churchyard sod |
| You were not good enough for men and so you’re given to God! |
| …and so you’re given to God" |
| Lies… |
| Brazen lies behind devout disguise |
| Abbess Margaret is a serpent in the pulpit |
| Spreading her evil sway |
| Abbess Margaret is a serpent in the pulpit |
| Bow to her morbid obsession with sin! |
