The Who - The Acid Queen lyrics

Your rating:
If your child ain't all he should be now,
This girl will put him right.
I'll show him what he could be now,
Just give me one night!

I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen,
Pay me before I start.
I'm the Gypsy, and I'm guaranteed
To mend his aching heart.

Give us a room, close the door.
Leave us for a while.
Your boy won't be a boy no more;
Young, but not a child!

'Cause I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen,
Pay me before I start.
The Gypsy, and I'm guaranteed
To tear your soul apart.

Gather your wits and hold on fast,
Your mind must learn to roam.
Just as the Gypsy Queen must do,
You're gonna hit the road!
My work is done, now look at him.
He's never been more alive.
His head it shakes, his fingers clutch.
Watch his body writhe!

I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen,
Pay me before I start.
I'm the Gypsy, I'm guaranteed
To break your little heart.

If your child ain't all he should be now,
This girl will put him right.
I'll show him what he could be now,
Just give me one more night!

I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen,
Pay me before I start.
I'm the Gypsy, I'm guaranteed
To tear his soul apart.
