lyrics

Well I’m hotter than a $2 pistol
And I’m sittin at the bottom of a bottle of wine
I got a bloody diamond ring on my finger
Name of Lilith
Mother of the night

And my legs run right up to the ceiling
And the elevator operates for free
But the rent ain't cheap you know
I gotta eat but I’ll
Take away all a your
Loneliness

And I rail like a Mexican steam train
And I smoke like a meteorite
I’m a sleeve fulla aces
Go on have a taste
Mother of harlots
Babylonia

Well I used to have a sweet sugar daddy
But I never danced the way he liked
So he traded me in
For a cut of prime rib
Oh that low down yellow bellied
Son of a bitch

Well I left my man in the garden of Eden
I broke his crown and I never went back
Now when you hear that howl
Of a fearsome femme fatale
That's old Lilith
Mother of the night
