Bonnie Prince Billy Mrs William Lyrics

mrs william, where is william?
where has william go?
you know you shouldnt
come into a place like this alone
now if youd like to sit here at my table ill abide
but it isnt usually my thing to do anothers bride
ill sell my heart, ill sell my brain
ill sell my love and all my fame
my mother maybe and my brother too
to raise the stake to pay for you
to get you from his side

and then ill watch keep one eye open
halfway fearing
halfway hoping
that blackguard boy
with handsome muscle
disturb your sleep with tiny tussle
and earn by stealing mrs william
mrs william gone again
but with your eyes and with your aura
youll never leave this place alone
i have you always, the taste of us coming
youll make the beasties and the flora
youre part of our eternal home
humble and bow down
