Velvet Underground - Lady Godivas Operation Lyrics
(reed)Lady godiva here dressed so demurelyPats the head of another curly hair boy, just another toySick with silence she weeps sincerlySaying words that have oh so clearly been saidSo long agoDraperies wrapped gently around her shoulderLife has made her that much bolder nowThat shes found out howDressed in silk, latin, lace and envyPride and joy of the latest funny fairePretty passing careHair today now dipped in the waterMaking love to every poor daughters sonIsnt it funNow today propping frace with envyLady godiva peers to see if anyones thereAnd hasnt a careDoctor is coming the nurse thinks sweetlyTurning on the machine and neatlypump airThe body lies bareShaed and hairless what onces was screamingNow lies silent and almost sleepingThe brain must have gone awayStrapped securely to the white tableEther caused the body to wither and writheUnderneath the wight lightDoctor arrives with knife and baggageSees the growth as just so much cabbageThat nowMust be cut awayNow comes the moment of great! great! decision!The doctor is making his first incision!One goes here - one goes thereThe ether tubes leaking says someone whos sloppyPatient it seems is not so well sleepingThe screams echo up the hallDont panic someone give him pentathol instantlyDoctor removes his bladeCagily so from the brainBy m count of ten -The head wont move
