Lady Godiva's Operation lyrics

Lady Godiva her dress is so demurely

Pats the head of another curly haired boy, just another toy

Sick with silence she weeps sincerely

saying word that have, oh so clearly been said

so long ago

Draperies wrapped gently 'round her shoulder

Life has made her that much bolder now

that she found out how

Dressed in silk, latin lace and envy

Pride and joy of the latest penny fair

pretty passing care

Hair today now dipped in the water

Making love to every poor daughter's son

isn't it fun

Now today propping grace with envy

Lady Godiva peers to see if anyone's there

and hasn't a care

Doctor is coming the nurse thinks SWEETLY

Turning on the machines that NEATLY pump air

the body lies bare

Shaved and hairless what once was SCREAMING

now lies silent and almost SLEEPING

the brain must have gone away

Straped securly to the white table

ether caused the body to wither and writhe

underneath the white light

Doctor arrives with knife and baggage

sees the growth as just so much cabbage

that must now be cut away

Now come the moment of Great! Great! Decision!

The doctor is making his first incision

One goes here--one goes there

The ether tube's leaking says someone who's sloppy

the patient it seems is not so well sleeping

The screams echo up the hall

Don't panic someone give him pentathol instantly

Doctor removes his blade

cagily slow from the brain

By my count of ten--

the head won't move
