Mercyful Fate - Mandrake Lyrics
Poisonous mandrake, you danerous rootOne of the three fates, when a mans time has comeYou look so human, so different from any other plantYoulook so human, that the devil might take you for a manWhite mandragora, with you root so thick, you are the maleBlack as the night on the outside, inside youre like a moonYou look so human, so different from any other plantYoulook so human, that the devil might take you for a manYour leaves spread out... so close to the groundMandrake root, your berries are just like the sunMandrake root, as a female your root will be forkedYour juice has been known, to take away livesCause insanity... am I losing my mind?Solo: shermann-weadIn the olden days it was believedThat in the dark of night, you had toTie a string from the neck of aBlack dog to the mandrake root, then move away, move awayAnd with meat you must lure the dogTo pull the mandrake root from the groundCover your ears... cause the cry of the mandrake rootNo man has ever survived, the dog will surely dieSolo: weadPoisonous mandrake, you dangerous rootOne of the three fates, when a mans time has comeYou look so human, so different from any other plantYoulook so human, that the devil might take you for a manYour leaves spread out... so close to the groundMandrake root, your berries are just like the sunMandrake root, as a female your root will be forkedYour juice has been known, to take away livesCause insanity... am I losing my mind?Mandrake root, bring me your poisonous loveMandrake root, I need you to bring me that loveMandrake root... mandrake root bring me loveMandrake root, bring me that poisonous thingThat everyone is calling love
