• Blue Beard

There was a maid as fair and plain you'd ever hear,
She once has met a wealthy man, his beard all sky-bright blue,
He spoke in riddles, smelled of dust, and he looked queer,
But gold and titles weaved the spell that words could never do -
His beard was blue.

He gave her keys that could reveal his fears and worries,
The labyrinth of passages, all shadowed and perplexed,
There was a room that he forbade... oh, you know the story -
Since for a maiden plain and fair it could be triple hexed.
Guess what was next?

Chorus:
Blood upon the keyring,
Blood upon the walls -
Oh, the Duke is nearing,
Oh, his weredog growls,
Oh, it's so inhuman,
Oh, you cannot wait,
Run, you silly woman -
Bluebeard's at the gate.
Wife of Bluebeard - now you'll die.
You disobeyed - now you'll die.
You earned his hate - now you'll die.
Wife of Bluebeard - now you'll die.

It was his beard, the wise men say, that was unholy,
A price for sorcery from which his fame and fortune grew -
A decent man is (a) poor and shaggy alcoholic,
And that is fine if facial hair is anything but blue.

Chorus.
