The seed that always died - Jona Lewie
[Intro]
G D G x3
[Verse 1]
G D
He's a gigolo, coming in for some tigia
D G
Monsieur Figaro isn't one who loses when he's had
G D
He's a lover boy hoping a man he will become
D G
She'll take him or destroy all his miles of chicken run
[Chorus]
G D
She takes good care of the fair in this land of despair and its starvation
D G
and its her job and it's got all the rules and the rocks of the vie-riche
G D
And she enjoys all the toys which make boys very coy and they're terrified
D G
She is the nurse to the need when she pleads for seed that always died
C G
for seed that always died, for seed that always died.
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G D
She calls him Cherie as she smiles at his pince-nez
D G
Burlesque is the scene where the pleasures come from props, no less
G D
Mirror on the wall, becoming a big white screen
D G
Give some some video of a love that must be seen
[Chorus]

for seed that always died, for seed that always died.
