Jezebel -

Jezebel was free

She wouldn’t be denied

With wolves hungry at her feet

She cursed them with her eyes

Said «If you kiss me with your teeth

You will surely die

I don’t want you at my door

I give my pleasure to the Lord

I don’t want you at my door

I give my pleasure to the Lord.»

Winter came and autumn died

There wasn’t any rain

Men went to Jezebel

To take her for a slave

Said «If you run away

We’ll chase you to the grave

Better do as you are told

Fetch us water from your well

Better do as you are told

Fetch us water from your well.»

The sun burned out the sky

Rivers ceased to flow

Jezebel would never cry

She could take it on her own

Into a bed of fire

Forced to lie alone

Said «Though you cut me with a knife

My blood will never fill your bones

Though you cut me with a knife

My blood will never save your soul.»

Jezebel was strong and brave

Painted like a queen

She threw her scorn down at the dogs

Held her head up in defeat

And from a tower sinking down

Into eternity

Said «Though my temple be destroyed

I give my pleasure to the Lord

Though my temple be destroyed

I give my pleasure to the Lord.»
