about

Vienna by Black Bordello

lyrics

Madersperger stitched me up,
I'm too young to go!
Now I'm too old to see Mozart in gold,
How could I have known?
Now I'm too old to see Mozart in gold,
How could I have known?

When the days were long,
I should've gone
Should've gone to Vienna
Before it all went wrong.
When I laid my spell
For our carousel,
We could've waltzed
When they hit the bell.

Brion Gysin cut me up -
Into shreds I go.
It wouldn't hurt if I tore his white shirt.
Maybe Freud would know?
It wouldn't hurt if I tore his white shirt.
Maybe Freud would know?

When the days were long,
I should've gone
Should've gone to Vienna
Before it all went wrong.
When I laid my spell
For our carousel,
We could've waltzed
When they hit the bell.

Were the engine to be struck,
We would have to go.
The news would have said to our friends we were dead-
They would never know!
The news would have said to our friends we were dead-
They would never know!

When the days were long,
I should've gone
Should've gone to Vienna
Before it all went wrong.
When I laid my spell
For our carousel,
We could've waltzed
When they hit the bell.

Oh, one two three, one two three,
Spin me around
Like the wheel of that carousel in the old town.
If my only regret was the pink cigarette
But now I'll never know.
If my only regret was the pink cigarette
But now I'll never know.

When the days were long,
I should've gone
Should've gone to Vienna
Before it all went wrong.
When I laid my spell
For our carousel,
We could've waltzed
When they hit the bell.
