Black Rose of Calcutta



When the black rose of Calcutta has her day,

Has her way

I see her way to ooo-o-oooh, desireability-

She said, "Show me sweet attention"

She has adorable intention

ooh-o-ooooooh, she hits herself

Which means in rock and roll talk, crazy talk,

She finds witty ways to make it okay.



Refrain:

Oh, Black Rose of Calcutta, all is not lost.

I love you at any cost.

You don't need no stinkin' man to make it alright

I aint never seen no man

Help you make it through the night!



Oh, Black Rose of Calcutta,

You been struck from the hit list

Aint no man ever see you kissed.

The morning is dawnig in pastel mist,

Oh, black rose of Calcutta,

That aint no way to exist!

Aint no way to exist.
