Kings And Queens [single version] Songtext
von Aerosmith

Long ago in days untold
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
Tossing turning nightmares burning, dreams of swords in hand
Sailing 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
Déjà 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 they died

Live and do or die
(Long ago in days untold, long ago in days untold) they died
(Kings and queens and guillotines)
(Kings and queens and guillotines) live and no reply
(Long ago in days untold, long ago in days untold) they died
(Kings and queens and guillotines)
