Godley And Creme - Madame Guillotine Lyrics

I waited for you in the usual place At the time we'd arranged And I thought I saw you go by in the car But the number plates had been changed Then my watch stopped ticking And the snow started sticking And the world looked different and strange (Chorus) It was the longest night that's ever been It was the longest night that's ever been It was the longest night that's ever been Waiting for Madame Guillotine All my friends said I must be crazy But I had to talk to someone So I found me a church and I prayed for a sign To tell me what had to be done And I swear as I gazed at the statute of Jesus The cross turned into a gun (Chorus) So I waited for a little bit longer And I was feeling really calm And then she appeared at the end of the street With another man on her arm So I fired two shots to stop her laughing And her body fell to the floor She was dead when the first shot hit her The second was just to make sure (Chorus) Never had much use for religion But now we're alone in my cell I'm begging you priest When you're praying for souls Please pray for my soul as well You see I'd like to think I was going to heaven But I can hear them singing in hell (Chorus) (Chorus) Godley And Creme Lyrics Madame Guillotine Lyrics
