[Verse 1]
Who shook the stars from her eyes?
Who shook the stars from her eyes?
Who took the shine
Made water out of wine
And left her alone in the world?

[Verse 2]
Who put a cloak round her soul?
Who put a cloak round her soul?
Who stole the prize
That glittered in her eyes
And left her the fool of the world?

[Chorus]
O Francesca
Who's gonna save you now?
O Francesca
Who's gonna save you now?
It takes nerve to put your hand up
To risk it all and stand up
To the tongue twisters
The campaign of whispers

[Verse 3]
Oh who dragged her name through the dirt?
Who dragged her name through the dirt?
Trampled it down
Burned it to the ground
Left her the orphan of the world
[Chorus]
O Francesca
Who's gonna save you now?
O Francesca
Who's gonna save you now?
It takes nerve to put your hand up
To risk it all and stand up
To the tongue twisters
The campaign of whispers

[Verse 4]
Oh who laid her down, took her rose?
Who laid her down, took her rose?
Who took her flower?
Now she charges by the hour
Left her the whore of the world
And left her the whore of the world
And left her the whore of the world
