W ell it's always been my nature to take chances
My right hand drawing back while my l eft hand advances
Where the current is strong and the monkey d ances
To the t une of a concertina
B lood drying in my yellow hair as I go from shore to shore
I know what it is that has d rawn me to your door
B ut what ever could it be makes you t hink you've seen me before
Angelina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
H is eyes were two slits m ake any snake proud
W ith a face that any painter would paint as he w alked through the crowd
W orshipping a god with the body of a woman we ll endowed
And the h ead of a hyena
D o I need your permission t o turn the other cheek
I f you can read my mind w hy must I speak?
N o I have heard nothing about the m an that you seek
Angelina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
I n the valley of the giants whe re the stars and stripes explode
T he peaches they were sweet and the mi lk and honey flowed
I was only following instructions w hen the judge sent me down the road
With your s ubpoena
W hen you cease to exist t hen who will you blame?
I 've tried my best to love you but I c annot play this game
Y our best friend and my worst enemy is o ne and the same
Angelina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
T here's a black Mercedes rolling t hrough the combat zone
Y our servants are half dead you're d own to the bone
T ell me tall man where would you like to b e overthrown?
In Jerus alem or Argentina?
S he was stolen from her mother when she was t hree days old
N ow her vengeance has been satisfied and her p ossessions have been sold
H e's surrounded by God's angels and she's w earing a blindfold
But so are you Angelina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
I see pieces of men marching t ryin' to take heaven by force
I can see the unknown rider I can see the pale white horse
I n God's truth name tell me what you want and you'll h ave it of course
Just step into the a rena
B eat a path of retreat up them s piral staircases
P ass the tree of smoke pass the a ngel with four faces
B egging god for mercy and w eeping in unholy places
Angelina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
Oooh-o h Angel ina
