Frank Wildhorn and Nan Knighton - Madame Guillotine lyrics

[MOB: MEN] I know the gutter and I know the stink of the street! Kicked like a dog, I have spat out the bile of defeat! All you beauties who towered above me You who gave me the smack of your rod! [MOB] Now I give you the gutter! I give you the judgement of God! [MOB: WOMEN] Vengeance victorious! These are the glorious days! [WOMAN OF MOB] Women of Paris come gather your bloody bouquets! [MOB] Now gaze on our goddess of justice With her shimmering glimmering blade! As she kisses these traitors She sings them a last serenade! Sing! Swing ! Savor the sting! As she severs you - Madame Guillotine! Slice! Come, Paradise! You'll be smitten with Madame Guillotine! [MAN OF MOB] The world may be ugly But each man must do what he must! [WOMAN OF MOB] Give in, pretty dear! In a year you will be pretty dust! [MOB] Now come let out lady possess you! In her breathtaking, hair-raising bed! She will tingle your spine As she captures your heart and your head! Sing! Swing! Savor the sting! As she severs you - Madame Guillotine! Slice! Come, Paradise! Our Delilah will shave you razor clean! [MARQUIS DE ST. CYR] God, when did man lose his reason? Save us, my God, if you're there! God, can you not feel the terror Like a fire in the air? [MOB] Flash! Slash! Glisten and gash! She will ravish you - Madame Guillotine! Slit! Madame just bit! Give her more to bite! She's a hungry queen! Sing! Savor the sting! As she severs you - Madame Guillotine! Slice! Come, Paradise! Hail, Her Majesty! Madame Guillotine!
