madame helga

mary mary where you been

you've been out all night

you ain't got no sleep

i've been dancing in the hills

at a place i know

she said 'and that's the place

where the fire flies glow'

had to slap my white face

pull my head from the clouds

and i kept

buying and

lying and flying

relying and dying

to know what spins her world around

good morning i missed ya

but ya bring me down

i saw an indian roller

today on the line

it was the forty eighth hour

we fought our forty eighth fight

madame helga's folly

is where i spent last night

she's been married not once

not twice

but three

and that's the livin' lovin' woman

i want me to be

there were pictures and paintings

of freaks like me

so i drank with my devil

for my company

had to slap my white face

pull my head from my clouds

and i kept

buying and

lying and flying

relying and dying

to know what spins her world around

good morning i missed ya

but ya bringing me down

i saw an indian roller

today on the line

it was the forty eighth hour

we fought our forty eighth fight

madame helga's folly

is where i spent last night

good morning i missed ya

but ya bringing me down

i saw an indian roller

today on the line

it was the forty eighth hour

we fought our forty eighth fight

madame helga's folly

is where i spent last night
