Bashee playin' magicians sittin' lotus on the floor Belly dancing beauty with a power driven saw Had my share of nightmares didn't think there could be much more Then in walked Rodrick Usher with the Lady Eleanor
She tied my eyes with ribbons of a silken ghosty thread I gazed with troubled vision on a notebook posted bed (old four poster bed) Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head And bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead
But it's alright, Lady Eleanor Alright Lady Eleanor I'm alright where I am
She gazed with her love and beauty like a mother to its son Like livin', dyin', seein', bein', all roll into one Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones Same old song I'd heard for years reminding me of home
But it's alright, Lady Eleanor Alright Lady Eleanor I'm alright where I am
Then creeping on towards me, licking lips with tongues of fire A host of golden demons screaming lust and base desire And when it seemed for certain that the screams could get no higher I heard a voice above the rest screaming 'you're a liar'
But it's alright, Lady Eleanor Alright Lady Eleanor I'm alright here in your arms
