The black seven
Love, money, prison, crime
Family and friends were all there
Wealth, richness, all the time
the beginning of my nightmare
—
Cause wine is pool for evil, all
A tamed cat behind the door
A jealous husband, a loved wife
Brings up the death, love no more
—
A hollowed eye was taken out
and evil is done, that’s my role
destroy the animal, now I shout
my fate I feel the gallows pole
—
fire, wind, death, destruction
for suffering has no name
a cat, a man, ablaze, emotion
now poor and rich are all the same
—
the pub and friends and fun and beer
an eye, a cat, a mark between
a host, a wife, a feeling, fear
an axe, a cellar, an assassin
—
I cry in pain, death, perverseness
I killed, Oh, sin!, I’ve lost my life
A man once rich, now rot in loneliness
you now lay dead, my dearest wife
—
Oh cat! the witch, perverse: I felt
you built a bridge for my mistake
I killed, I died, in prison I melt
I suffer, I cry, my life you take!
