Rufus Wainwright - Damned Ladies Lyrics

Desdemona, do not go to sleep
Brown eyed Tosca, don't believe the creep
I see it in his eyes

And why don't you ladies
Believe me when I'm screaming
I always believe you

Violetta, keep your man locked up
Or like Cio, Cio you will end up
Burned by love or sickness

And why don't you ladies
Believe me when I'm screaming
I always believe you

There is a knock at the door
Tell me, it's not Mimi again
Or is it Gilda's waitin' passion
To be stabbed and killed again

Katya Kabanova, why did you marry him?
You knew his mother
Was a bitch and would
Keep hold of him

Oh Pamina got away from mama
Before the age of Rambo Opera
Damned ladies of Orpheus
Your arias cause a stir
In my sad, sad and lonely heart
