"Venus In Furs"
=======================================
album _The Velvet Underground and Nico_
(The Velvet Underground, 1967)

written by Lou Reed
=======================================


        Shiny 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

        Downy sins of streetlight fancies
        chase the costumes she shall wear
        Ermine furs adorn imperious
        Severin, Severin awaits you there

        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

        Kiss the boot of shiny shiny leather
        shiny leather in the dark
        Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
        strike dear mistress and cure his heart

        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

        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

        Shiny shiny, shiny boots of leather
        whiplash girlchild in the dark
        Severin your servant, comes in bells
        please don't forsake him
        strike dear mistress and cure his heart
