《Madame Jeneva》歌词

[00:00:00] Madame Jeneva - Daisy Chapman

[00:00:05] Written by：Daisy Chapman

[00:00:10] In the late 1730s the decandent ladies

[00:00:16] Fled to the west leaving the rest

[00:00:20] In the flame scarred frown of East London town

[00:00:26] Where the hookers and bookers reside

[00:00:30] From the embers rose the rookeries

[00:00:36] Housing vice and debauchery

[00:00:41] And the name of this fever

[00:00:46] Was Madame Jeneva

[00:00:51] Oh drunk for a penny and dead drunk for two

[00:00:57] Clean straw for nothing come celebrate your suffering

[00:01:02] Madame Jeneva she will defeat ya

[00:01:07] Slappy Bonita she will decieve ya

[00:01:21] Her juniper berries set many a ladies'

[00:01:26] Hearts a flutter but their souls in the gutter

[00:01:31] Back streets of St Giles played host to the smiles

[00:01:36] Of the hags with their gin soaked rags

[00:01:41] Ms Eastwick and Miss Dafur

[00:01:46] Ransom offspring for liquor

[00:01:52] Escape the horrors of Gin Lane

[00:01:57] For the labrynth of Mother's Ruin

[00:02:01] Oh drunk for a penny and dead drunk for two

[00:02:07] Clean straw for nothing come celebrate your suffering

[00:02:12] Madame Jeneva she will deceive ya

[00:02:17] Slappy Bonita she will defeat ya

[00:03:01] William Hogarth sketched the aftermath

[00:03:05] Ink to paper some years later

[00:03:10] Marking the pity and stench of the city

[00:03:15] That the well to do left in their wake

[00:03:19] Oh drunk for a penny and dead drunk for two

[00:03:25] Clean straw for nothing come celebrate your suffering

[00:03:30] Madame Jeneva she will deceive ya

[00:03:35] Slappy Bonita she will defeat ya
