If she floats, then we burn her,
If she drowns, then she's clean.
Come back to bed, he said,
Jesus Christ on the wall, looking on.
But she was still looking out of the window,
Still looking out of the window,
At the low, low moon.
She turned to him, with eyes like stars,
Said this,
Said this.
There are devils in this house,
I've seen them,
Gathered round our bed,
Like they've got tickets for the show,
Tickets for the show,
Tickets for the show,
Tickets for the show.
Oh, don't you know.
Well the charges are this,
You did lay with Thomas Frome,
While imps did gather round your bed.
You then made an image of his wife,
Stabbed it with a knife,
Which did cause her a great sickness in the head.
Now, I'm sure you're sweet enough,
But I'd bet my very soul,
That satan is abroad beneath those skirts.
Well, it's true, I'm no angel,
That's for sure.
But that Matthew Hopkins counts his money like a whore,
Money like a whore,
Money like a whore, yeah,
Money like a whore, yeah.
My lords, I emplore.
If she floats, then we burn her,
If she drowns....
Then she's clean.
Then she's clean.
Then she's clean.
Then she's clean.
Oh. this place is so....
Place is so unclean....
