Saxon - Madame Guillotine (Official Video - )

Альбом: Saxon - Hell, Fire And Damnation (2024) Saxon - Madame Guillotine (Official Video) Hell, Fire And Damnation is an album which sees Saxon investigate all areas of history and mystery amidst ten of their most confident and thunderously powerful songs yet. In “Madame Guillotine”, lead singer and founding member Biff Byford, chooses to give voice to the infamous torturing device, best known for its use in the French Revolution between 1789 and 1799. “Both this and the title track songs are written by me and Brian actually, and this is very ‘Saxon’, so much as I don’t think anybody else could pull that off,” comments Byford. “I sung it as if the guillotine is a person, that the actual guillotine has a bit of a conscience. I love the groove, it’s got a great groove!” They call me the death I’ve come to settle your debt Marie Antoinette I took your pretty head I am the scourge of the rich Revenge of the poor Your cries are in vain I can’t help with your pain The arrangements are made You will die by my blade Just let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to meet you But please don’t lose your head For Madame Guillotine The revolution came I was never to blame It was my purpose to kill But people came for the thrill For the sound of the mob Baying for your blood And I show no remorse I am set on my course All I feel is the drop of my blade Just let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to meet you But please don’t lose your head For Madame Guillotine There was never enough To satisfy the lust For the head in this basket Another corpse for the casket To entertain the crowd Your severed head held proud I’ve no feeling of guilt Why my structure was built I’m a slave to my masters, I do as I’m bid Just let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to meet you But please don’t lose your head Let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to see you Be careful with your head To Madame Guillotine Please don’t lose your head To Madame guillotine To Madame guillotine
