Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild 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
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 boot 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
Taste the whip, now plead for me
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
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don’t forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
“Venus in Furs”, Lou Reed (1967)
Bad luck wind been blowin’ on my back
I was born to bring trouble wherever I’m at
With the number ’13’ tattooed on my neck
That ink starts to itch
Black gon’ turn to red
I was born in the soul of misery
And I never had me a name
They just give me a number when I was young
Got a long line of heartache
I carry it well
The list of lives I’ve broken
Reach from here to Hell
And a bad luck wind been blowin’ on my back
Pray you don’t look at me
And I pray I don’t look back
Found me with a preacherman confessin’ all I done
Catch me with the devil playing 21
And a bad luck wind been blowin’ on my back
I was born to bring trouble wherever I’m at
I was born in the soul of misery
And I never had me a name
They just give me a number when I was young
When I was young…
“Thirteen”, Glenn Danzig (1999)
