Текст песни Scary Tale Theater (Vagabond Opera) с переводом

I once knew a woman

Who laced up her boots

Her head was an elm

And her long legs were roots

When the streets are all empty

You might find her there

Her skin was the moon

And the river her hair

Sleeping beauty never got kissed

She’s lying in bed

Wondering what she missed

Sleeping beauty

Never got kissed

One, two, three

One, two three!

Aah! Aah!

I cracked a fresh egg

On the blue metal pan

I coaxed on the fire

I spread the black jam

We sat gabbing stories

‘Til the mountains, they cried

Snow covered rivers

With brambles inside

Well, Cinderella got a divorce

She got to keep the pumpkin

And the one white horse

Cinderella

Got a divorce

Eins, zwei, drei

Eins, zwei, drei!

Aah! Aah!

She crept up behind me

And covered my eyes

Hands smelled like candles

Burnt up by sunrise

We went to the crossroads

And she left me alone

Under the 36th star

With spells and old tomes

Aah! Aah!

The sky got too dark

There were frogs by your toes

They sang murky love songs

Of water, I suppose

I danced with the smithy

I danced with the thief

I danced with a woman

She shook like a leaf

Bending down treetops

The wind rose up high

We lifted our faces

And our bones to the sky

But they were soon coming

And it was close to our time

We shall be caught dancing

In the mud and the slime

Don’t you know that

Little red riding hood

Ate the wolf

She started with the tongue

And ended with a huff, hah!

Little red riding hood

Ate the wolf

One, two, three

One, two, three!

Aah! Aah!
