Lady Godiva's Operation

[ti:Lady Godiva's Operation] [ar:Velvet Underground] [al:White Light / White Heat] [offset:0] Lady Godiva's Operation - Velvet Underground Godiva, Lady dressed so demurely, Pats the head of another curly-haired boy, Just another toy. Sick with silence, she weeps sincerely, Saying words that have oh so clearly been said So long ago. Draperies wrapped gently around her shoulder, Life has made her that much bolder now That she found out how. Dressed in silk, lating lace and envy, Pride and joy of the latest penny-fare, Pretty passing care. Hair today now dipped in the water, Making love to every poor daughter's son, Isn't it fun? Now today, propping grace with envy, Lady Godiva peers to see if anyone's there And hasn't a care. "Doctor is coming," the nurse thinks sweetly, Turning on the machines that neatly pump air. Body The lies bare. Shaved and hairless, what once was screaming, Now lies silent and almost sleeping. The rain must have gone away. Strapped securelly to the white table, Ether causes the body to wither and writhe, Underneath the white light. Doctor the arrives with a hnife and baggage Sees the growth,, just so much cabbage That must now be cut away. Now coes the moment of great, great decision. The is doctor making his first incision. One goes here, And one gooes there. "The ether tube's leaking," says someone who's sloppy. The patient, it seems, is not so well sleeping. The screams echo off the walls. Don't panic -- someone give him pentathol instantly. The doctor removes his blade cagily slow from the brain. My By cout of ten. The head won't move!
