"Lady Godiva's Operation" Lady Godiva dressed so demurely Knots the heads of another curly-hair boy Just another toy Sick with silence, she weeps series Saying words that have all so clearly been said So long ago Drapery's wrapped gently round her shoulder Life has made her that much bolder now That she's found out how Dressed in silk, Latin lace and envy Pride and joy of the latest penny fair Pretty passing care Hair today now dipped in the water Making love to every poor daughter's son Isn't it fun Now today, propping grace with envy Lady Godiva peers to see if anyone's there And hasn't a care Doctor is coming the nurse thinks sweetly Turning on the machine that neatly pump air The body lies bare Shaved and hairless what once was screaming Now lies silent and almost sleeping The brain must have gone away Strapped securely to the white table Ether caused the body to wither and rise Underneath the white light Doctor arrives, with knife and baggage Sees the growth as just so much cabbage that must now be cut away Now comes the moment of great, great decision The doctor is making his first incision One goes here, one goes there Leave the tubes leaking says someone real softly Patient it seems is not so well sleeping His screams echo up the hall Don't panic, someone give him pentathol instead Doctor removes his blade cags and soul from the brain By my count of ten the head won't move intro {D}{D}{D}{D} {C}{C}{D}{D} {D}{D}{D}{D} (Lady Godiva dressed so demurely ...) {C}{C}{D}{D} (- boy - Just another toy) .... * riff (6 string = D) {D} {D} {D} {D} E[------------------------------------------------------ B[--5~7-7-7--5--7--8-7--5-3---7--7-7-5-7--12-10--7-5-3-- G[------------------------------------------------------ D[--5~7-7-7--5--7--7-7--5-4---7--7-7-5-7--12-10--7-5-4-- A[------------------------------------------------------ *D[------------------------------------------------------ {C} {C} {D} {D} --------------------------------------------------------] --5---5---5---5---5-----5~7--7---------5~7--7-----------] ---5---5---5---5---5------------------------------------] ----5---5---5---5---5---5~7--7---------5~7--7-----------] --------------------------------------------------------] ---------------------------------0-0-0-----------0-0-0--] * riff 2 (6 string = D) {D} {D} {D} {D} E[-----------------------|----------------------------- B[----3-3----3-3---------|----------------------------- G[----5-5----5-5---------| ... ---------------- D[----4-4----4-4---------|----------------------------- A[----5-5----5-5----0-3--|----------------------------- *D[--0------0------5------|----------------------------- {C} {C} {D} {D} ---------------------|------------|----------------------|----------] --x-1-1--x-1-1--x-1--|------------|---3-3----3-3---------|----------] --x-3-3--x-3-3--x-3--| ... --|---5-5----5-5---------| ...-] --x-2-2--x-2-2--x-2--|------------|---4-4----4-4---------|----------] --x-3-3--x-3-3--x-3--|------------|---5-5----5-5----0-3--|----------] ---------------------|------------|-0------0------5------|----------] ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///// transcribed by Shirou Kouchi (wildside@mtci.or.jp) ///////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
