๐ Lyrics
On the black gallows, one-armed friend
The lean, the devil's paladins
The skeletons of Saladins
Dance of the Hanged Men
Sir Beelzebub pulls by the scruff
His little black puppets who grin at the sky
The crow acts as a plume for these cracked brains
A scrap of flesh clings to each lean chin
You would say, to see them turning in their dark combats
They were stiff knights clashing pasteboard armours
Hurray! the gay dancers, you whose bellies are gone!
Never mind whether it's fighting or dancing!
Beelzebub, maddened, saws on his fiddles!
Clenches his knuckles on his thighbone with a crack
Uttering cries like mocking laughter
Skips back into the dance to the music of the bones!
The lean, the devil's paladins
The skeletons of Saladins
Dance of the Hanged Men
Sir Beelzebub pulls by the scruff
His little black puppets who grin at the sky
The crow acts as a plume for these cracked brains
A scrap of flesh clings to each lean chin
You would say, to see them turning in their dark combats
They were stiff knights clashing pasteboard armours
Hurray! the gay dancers, you whose bellies are gone!
Never mind whether it's fighting or dancing!
Beelzebub, maddened, saws on his fiddles!
Clenches his knuckles on his thighbone with a crack
Uttering cries like mocking laughter
Skips back into the dance to the music of the bones!
