Lucius
Venus in Furs
[Verse 1: Andrew Bird]
Shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

[Verse 2: Lucius]
Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorned, imperious
Severin, Severin awaits you there

[Bridge: Andrew Bird & Lucius]
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

[Verse 3: Andrew Bird]
Kiss the boot of shiny leather
Shiny leather in thе dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that doеs await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

[Verse 4: Lucius]
Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now bleed for me
[Bridge: Andrew Bird with Lucius]
I am tired, woah, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams, oh, that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

[Verse 5: Lucius, Andrew Bird]

(Ooh) Whiplash girlchild in the dark
(Ooh) Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
