 Jezebel, Jezebel 

  

 If ever the devil was born without a pair of horns 

 It was you, Jezebel, it was you 

 If ever an angel fell, Jezebel, it was you 

 Jezebel, it was you 

  

 If ever a pair of eyes promised paradise 

 Deceiving me, grieving me, leavin' me blue 

 Jezebel, it was you 

  

 If ever the devil's plan was made to torment man 

 It was you, Jezebel, it was you 

  

 Could be better that I never know a lover such as you 

 Forsaking dreams and all for the siren call of your arms 

  

 Like a demon, love possessed me, you obsessed me constantly 

 What evil star is mine, that my fate's design should be Jezebel? 

  

 If ever a pair of eyes promised paradise 

 Deceiving me, grieving me, leavin' me blue 

 Jezebel, it was you 

  

 If ever the devil's plan was made to torment man 

 It was you, Jezebel, it was you, night and day, every way 

 Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel!!!!
