Doktor Faustus Songtext
von The Fall

Doctor Faustus
Horseshoes splacking
Swallows hay cart, cart horse
Of the peasants blocking his path

Doctor Faustus
Power showing
Spits out hay cart, cart horse hay and box
Outside the gates of the town of Anholt

You′ve had your chances, you've had your chance
You′ve had your chances, you've had your chance

Doctor Faustus
At the court of the Count
Made fruits exotic pleasure-licious
Appear behind curtains in Winter


Faustus
At the court of the decadent Count
Made animals from sunny lands appear
In the sparse gardens

You've had your chances, you′ve had your chance
You′ve had your chances, you've had your chance

Doctor Faustus
Horseshoes splacking
Swallows hay cart, cart horse
Hay and box
Of the peasants blocking his path
Had to leave
His drinking student friends

Doctor Faustus, Doctor Faustus
Had your chances, you′ve had your chance
Had your chances, you've had your chance
Had your chances, you′ve had your chance
Had your chances, you've had your chance


There′s a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky
There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky
There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky
There′s a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky
