Cradle Of Filth - Serpent Tongue Lyrics
[part 1]So adept was unspoken manAt dusting ledgers of the seraphimThat lilith swept across the broken landIn a whirl of lust to pleasure himThis bland adam, a reaper of the sunIn bone dry season, for eve was busy sucking thumbsPricked in rosy gardens as he spattered into shellsAnd ran with morning fauna; his mastiffs and gazelleBreathless as the windAdam, prowled, fell foul to sinBut not before she spread her grinAcross his silent lipsAt crack of day, though what was shame?The raptors nest wherein they layBore witness to her soft paradeOf fingers come to gripsHis undivine attention wonShe deftly spunFrom neath his thrusts to writhe aboveIn ecstasyPendulous she swungAs if her limbs imbibed his tongueTo spill, as with his rodThe secret name of godBut no seed passed those fruitful lipsFor fearing her who grasped, he slitHer throat from ear to where she fledWith tail and blood between her legsss...[part ii]So very kept was the virgin handThat brushed the treasures of utopiaAnd how the greed swept across the desert sandsIn late august just to measure herThis hallowed eve, a creature of the moonA simple dish born with a silver spoonGiddy sniffing orchids that opened after duskIncubus and prudence, two such swoon to touch herRestless as the skiesTemptation, bloomed, found room to riseAnd snatching breaths between her thighsHe crawled to eve...At dead of night, the sticky climeSmelt perfect to this serpentineThis shining angelPalled in mysteries...Her undivine attention wonHe deftly spunA web of for the oneGreat sacred treeBejewelled and litAs if a thousand shades did flitAbout boughs of forbidden loreHidden for the want of moreAnd when seeds passed those fruitful lipsAnd mankind basked in vast eclipseA devil shot of thin disguiseSurmised to better paradise
