 Venus in Furs
 
    Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
    Whiplash girl-child in the dark
    Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
    Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
    
    Downy sins of streetlight fancies
    Chase the costumes she shall wear
    Ermine furs adorn the imperious
    Severin, Severin awaits you there
  
   
 Chorus:  
    I am tired, I am weary
    I could sleep for a thousand years
    A thousand dreams that would awake me
    Different colors made of tears
 
    
    Kiss the whip of shiny, shiny leather
    Shiny leather in the dark
    Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
    Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
    
    Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
    Severin, down on your bended knee
    Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
    Severin, taste the whip, now plead for me
   
 Chorus
    
    Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
    Whiplash girl-child in the dark
    Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
    Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
