Kings And Queens - Lyrics by Aerosmith


Lyrics
Long ago in days I'm told

Were ruled by Lords of greed

Maidens fared with gold

They dared to bare their wombs that bleed


Kings and queens and guillotines

Taking lives denied

Starch and parchment laid the laws

When bishops took the ride

Only to deceive


Oh I know I lived this life afore

Somehow know now truths I must be sure

Tossin turnin' nightmares burnin' dreams of swords in hand

Sailin' ships the Viking spits the blood of father's land

Only to deceive


Living times of knights and mares

Raising swords for maidens fair

Sneer at death fear only loss of pride


Living other centuries

Deja vu or what you please

Follows true to all who do or die


Screams of no reply they died

Screams of no reply and died

Lordy lordy and then then they died

Lordy no then they died


Live and do or die

Long ago were days I told...
Lord they died

Kings and queens and guillotines...

Live and no reply they died

Long ago were days I told...

Kings and queens and guillotines...
